SENIOR CHESHIRE HONOURS FOR WILMSLOW
WILMSLOW skipper Mike Clifford and scrum half Charlie Mulchrone played for Cheshire against champions Lancashire in the first round of the county championship at Fylde on May 8th. Both played an important part in a nailbiting contest that was much closer than many expected, given Cheshire’s appalling selection problems because of so many top teams [...]
CHESHIRE CUP FINAL MATCH REPORTS
Cheshire RFU Junior Cup Finals at Wilmslow
David Pike writes:
Sunday 2nd. May was Junior Cup Finals day for the best Cheshire teams at U16, U17 and U19 levels. Hosted at Wilmslow RUFC’s Memorial Ground, the three finals were played one after another.
At U16 level, Sandbach comprehensively beat Lymm by 27-0, scoring three tries in the process. [...]
AGONY FOR COLTS IN CUP FINAL
The Under 17 Colts lost 26-29 to Lymm with the last kick of the match in a pulsating Cheshire Cup Final at Wilmslow on Sunday, May 2nd. It was 26-all approaching the final whistle when Wilmslow infringed offside and that was that. A brave effort lads, and still one cup in the bag. Well done!
MATCH PROGRAMME – ALTRINCHAM KERSAL
Click to open link
SEASON ENDS WITH DERBY JOY
Saturday, April 10th, 2010
North One West
WILMSLOW 22 ALTRINCHAM KERSAL 13
WILMSLOW ended their season as they started – with a mighty victory over local rivals Altrincham Kersal.
Seven months ago the fresh-faced boys nicked it 6-3 against the hard men of recently-relegated Kersal.
At Pownall Park on Saturday, the young men came of age, raining on their visitors’ [...]
A GAME OF TWO HALVES
Sat, April 3rd, 2010
North One West
BLACKBURN 13 WILMSLOW 32
WILMSLOW dug deep to beat basement boys Blackburn – so deep, they first descended to their opponents’ level of play before a second half rally produced the required result.
And even then, an interception try from Blackburn flattered their score.
“To say we were poor in the first half [...]
MORE LAST MINUTE AGONY
Saturday, March 27th, 2010
North One West
WILMSLOW 17 LIVERPOOL ST HELENS 27
IF ever a scoreline flattered to deceive….
Injury-ravaged Wilmslow let a 17-10 half time lead slip to 17-all with just five minutes to go.
Then, for the fourth game running, the result was decided in the closing minutes of the game as the Wolves pounded the LSH [...]
WE’LL DRAW A VEIL OVER THIS ONE
Saturday, March 20th, 2010
North One West
VALE of LUNE 17 WILMSLOW 14
ANOTHER last minute score to win the game. But this time Wilmslow were on the receiving and went down 17-14 in a ding-dong battle at Vale of Lune.
The lead changed hands four times in an incident-packed, error-strewn contest hampered by some extraordinary refereeing decisions.
Wilmslow will [...]
HAWKS BOW DOWN TO BOWDON
Saturday 13th March 2010
Miller Home League 5 South
BOWDON 3rd XV – 20 WILMSLOW HAWKS – 19
A frustrating afternoon for a number of reasons. However, maybe this is the wakeup call the Hawks Development Squad need for their final 4 games of the season. They are so close to such a massive achievement. Each game is like climbing a mountain to find another summit hidden behind this one. Although today was not their best showing, I have every faith that the Hawks can pick themselves up and enjoy the final run in to the end of the season.
WILMSLOW NICK IT – AGAIN!
<!–[endif]–>
Sat, March 13th, 2010
North 1 West
WILMSLOW 27 LEIGH 23
THEY did it again! But this nail-biter was much tighter than the last gasp victory over Tyldesley a week earlier. That was only in the second minute of extra time.
This Wilmslow side left it until the fifth minute of time added on for centre and man-of-the match [...]

Match Report: Wilmslow vs Old Anselmians – 24 Jan
Great turn out for the first match of 2010. We had 16 players turn up. Bit of a shame we didn’t have 18 as we could have put out two teams, but for a match so far from home in the cold and wet it was a great squad.
The warm up concentrated on keeping warm, [...]
