Under 15 Rugby team wins Lancashire Plate Final

Despite several set backs on the day of the game, with players being ruled out through illness and injury. The remaining Under 15 rugby players put in a very resilient performance against Stonyhurst College to come back from a 15-0 half time deficit.

A superb start in the second half put Bolton on the front foot and they remained there for the rest of the game.

Tries came at regular intervals, as the 17 available players rotated on and off the field, and kept the momentum going until the final whistle. The final score was Bolton School 33, Stonyhurst College 20. It would be wrong to single out any individual players as the whole squad contributed to a fantastic win against a very good rugby school.

Captain Nathan Pierson lifted the trophy in front of his team mates as the celebrations began.
