Cowley Cricket Tour

Malaysia 2010 On October 17th 26 members of the cricket team will embark on a 12 night tour of Malaysia. They will play a total of 8 matches in Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh and Penang against local combined schools teams. The ground in Kuala Lumpur has held many international cricket matches and is one of the best in the country. The tour is a great way to sample a totally different culture and to play cricket in conditions that are much hotter than we are used to in St. Helens. Good luck to all players and the staff accompanying them.

Cowley Rugby - 1st Team Tour, Chester 2010

At the beginning of the new school year, the Cowley 1st team squad embarked on a tour of the historic City of Chester. The squad went for 2 days, along with teachers, Mr. Evans, Mr. Gordon, Mr. Garrity and Mr. Llewellyn. The tour consisted of staying at Chester university, training at the university on the rugby pitches, while also going bowling in Chester on the night and going sight seeing in the City. On the first night spent at the university, before the team went bowling, there was a quiz and the presentation of last seasons 1st team awards. The tour was a great success and the lads all had a great time. The tour really helped the team to bond and hopefully will provide a real boost for the upcoming season, and help the team to achieve success!! STOP PRESS!

An impressive start to the season has seen Cowley win 3 out of their 3 opening games. Wins over Wallasey, St Edwards and John Deans College has set the boys up for an important season.

Hockey Round Up

The opening match of the season saw Cowley U16 team record an impressive 4 - 0 victory over local school St Aelred's. Cowley took an early lead with a well taken penalty corner routine and a goal from Kirsty Cunliffe.

Cowley continued to dominate play and a further goal from Kirsty and two more from Katie Duffy saw Cowley win by 4 - 0. The first Saturday matches were played this week against Archbishop Blanch, Liverpool. The U16's enjoyed a closely contested match and despite taking an early lead with a goal from Holly Talbot were forced to de-fend after Archbishop Blanch applied pressure from half time. The scores were levelled at one all, but with Cowley once again on the attack continued pressure on the Archbishop goal saw Cowley take the lead once more, the final score 2 - 1 to Cowley. The U14's playing 11 a side did well to stand up to a lot of pressure on the Cowley goal. For some time the defence held strong until conceding a goal just prior to half time. After the interval Cowley enjoyed some good attacking play with an excellent move down the right being saved by Archbishop Blanch keeper. Unfortunately caught on the counter attack Cowley conceded a second goal to lose 0 -2. Hockey training is held on a Wednesday 3.30 - 4.30 at Ruskin Drive, minibus leaves from front of school. We particularly would like to welcome more year 8 students.
