Fantastic day for Sports as Hockey, Rugby and Football teams progress through to next round

Congratulations to all the teams who played and won some brilliant games yesterday! Impressive sporting displays all around!

On the Hockey pitch, the girls 1st XI team played against Repton in the second round of the Independent Schools Hockey Cup and claimed their place in the next round with a fantastic 5-2 win. 🏑

Meanwhile, on Terrace, we saw some stunning backplay and wonder tries from the 1st XV boys rugby team, who played a cracking fixture against Bedford School in the first round of the Continental Tyres School Cup, steaming through to the next round with a terrific 36-14 result. 🏉

Finally, the girls football XI won their way to the second round of the U18 IFSA Cup, winning 7-0 against Chigwell. The Haileybury team started their away game brightly, keeping the ball well, and continued to grow in confidence as they stretched the opposition’s defence. Chigwell battled hard, making the game a real contest for the entire 70 minutes but the girls’ determination prevailed and they are now excited to see who they will draw in the next round. ⚽

It was a really impressive performance from the girls. The result today is a testament to our hard work in training and the commitment we brought to the pitch. The attacking threat from our forwards was exemplary and the defence was strong and organised. We look forward to the next round of the cup!” – Martha, Upper Sixth & Football XI Captain
