In a season defined by resilience, the U18 1st XV wrote their names into school history at the home of rugby. In driving rain at Twickenham, the team secured a gritty 15-10 victory over Kirkham Grammar School to lift the National Cup. It was a triumph of composure and character, capped by the roar of over 300 students, staff, and parents in the stands. As Head of Rugby Mr Roberts noted, the tough conditions made the victory even sweeter for a "closely knit" team that had worked tirelessly since preseason.
Director of Sport Mr Kench described the win as the culmination of a programme designed not just to create players, but to "make better men." With outstanding performances across the pitch and a captain's display from Archie Pearson, the team delivered a moment that united the entire Trinity community.
