Anya will travel to Holland at Easter to take part in a series of matches against Holland and France. The squad are working towards the European U18 Hockey Cup in July which will see Anya and the squad travel to Germany to compete. In addition to this fantastic achievement, Anya has also been nominated for the GB Elite Development Programme trial, with the final trial taking place later this month. Congratulations, Anya, and good luck for the final GB EDP trial in a few weeks! **Tags:** [Sports](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news/tag/sports) [2022-2023](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news/tag/2022-2023) [Sixth Form](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news/tag/sixth-form) - [ previous](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news/2023-01-06-kgs-production-of-peter-pan-receives-15-noda-nominations) - [next ](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news/2023-01-11-sports-reports) - [Mission Statement](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/mission-statement) - [Latest News](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news) - [History of KGS](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/history) - [Location & Community](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/location) - [Term Dates](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/termdates) - [Statutory Information](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/statutory-information) - [School Policies](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/policy-documents) - [Calendar](https://calendar.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/week.aspx?ID=158) - [The Kirkhamian](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news-1/the-kirkhamian) - [The Friends of KGS](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/thefriends-of-kgs) - [Old Kirkhamians' Association](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/old-kirkhamians-association) - [Hire of Facilities](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/hire-of-facilities) - [Vacancies](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/vacancies/our-vacancies) ## Kirkham Grammar School ## Kirkham Grammar Junior, Infant & Pre-School Ribby Rd Kirkham Preston Lancashire PR4 2BH Tel: **01772 684264** Email: Ribby Road Kirkham Preston Lancashire PR4 2BD Tel: **01772 673222** Email: [![HMC Leading Independent Schools](https://files.schudio.com/kirkham-grammar-school/images/partners/hmc.png)](https://www.hmc.org.uk/)[![Boarding Schools' Association](https://files.schudio.com/kirkham-grammar-school/images/partners/bsa.png)](http://www.boarding.org.uk/) © Copyright 2019–2026 Kirkham Grammar School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
