Football and rugby this season Senior rugby The senior rugby sides have enjoyed a successful start to their season with the 1st XV winning four of their six opening games. A strong 39-7 win on their first game against Burnham kicked off a good run of form with victories against John Hampden, Sir William Borlase and a second triumph over Burnham Grammar school. The 2nd XV teams game versus Forest School was another resounding victory in which Challoners won the game 28-7, scoring four tries. However, Challoners form took a hit against Cathedral school. A valiant team effort was not enough to hold off the physical side from Queensland in Australia in a challenging game where Challoners ended up the losing team. In their most recent game the 1st XV showed a strong team performance against Reading, with Jake Cutter scoring two tries, bringing his tally to seven so far this season. Challoners narrowly missed out on a victory though, as they conceded a try in the closing stages of the game. The team now look to continue their good season heading into the winter months. Senior football The Sixth Form football season kicked off to two great victories against Denbigh with both the 1st XI and 2nd XI team winning by considerable margins, 6-0 and 6-1 respectively. The 1st teams second game of the school year was against a strong St. Clement Danes side. Two goals from Joe Inch and one from Ollie Penton meant that the full time score was a deserved 3-1 win to Challoners. In the following three games the 1st XI won 4-0, 4-2 and 4-0, bringing their record to five wins out of five, with Joe Inch taking a hat-trick along the way. Unfortunately Challoners winning streak was brought to an end with a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Hampton – but, despite this, the team bounced back quickly winning against rivals John Hampden 3-1. This placed a Challoners at the top of their Bucks Cup group. The 2nd XI also put in a commanding performance against John Hampden Grammar School, winning 5-0. After the initial stages of the season Challoners 1st XI hold a win record of seven games in eight as the squad look to reach the latter stages of the Bucks Cup
