PREVIEW: OCTOBER-DECEMBER HALF-TERM

Preview to Next Half-Term (October to December)

This half-term sees the beginning of the basketball and rugby season alongside the hockey season continuing.

Basketball

This time last year the high interest in basketball led to the creation of CHS’ basketball team. CHS started the season well but suffered their first defeat of their season after back to back wins. CHS begin their season on Friday 8^th November at home to King’s School a team which they beat 38:21 last season. There are high expectations for the basketball side this season.

Rugby

After the announcement before half-term by the RFU regarding the participation of state schools in rugby union I am pleased to say that CHS is one of the 750 state schools who play rugby competitively in the UK and in recent years they have been successful. Including last year where Year 7 and Year 10 won the Cheshire Inter School Championships. Can they do the same this year? The PE department certainly hope so and if they continue where they left off last year than I can see why they are so confident.

Hockey

CHS will hoping for more results like the opening day of the hockey season, this half-term and I am sure that if they continue to play like they did last half-term then CHS will come out on top more often.

One thing’s for sure we are in for another action-packed and potentially successful half-term before we break for Christmas.
