They were relaxed confident during the warm up, but after 3 consecutive sets of 6, Cowley managed to score from a kick to the corner to take the lead. The Eddies' team responded well to this, stringing a couple of sets of 6 together and were rewarded with a try for Oscar Fishwick on his debut. **At half-time the score was 6 Cowley - 4 Eddies.** After an inspiring team talk from Miss Walsh and Mr Burgess, the second half was like a different team. Eddies cut out the mistakes out and really took a grip of the game. Cowley couldn’t match the physicality of Eddies - players in defence like **Ben H** and **Ethan B** hitting everything that moved, and **Kian H** running with the ball and sending the Cowley players in all directions. All this forced Cowley to surrender field position and allowed Eddies to play on the front foot. It was then over to **Ben H**, scoring back to back 50m runs - so similar it looked like an action replay! **Noah R** then got in on the act with a nice worked move down the short side allowing him to slide over untouched. **The final score was Cowley 4 - 20 Eddies!** Special mentions have to go to **Ben H** for his double, **Ethan B** captaining the team, **Oscar F** for a brilliant performance on his debut and for **Henry S** stepping up to fill in for injuries on the day of the game and impressing when on the pitch. Two more games in the group stage before thinking about knock out rugby. Our next game is Monday 30 November at home against Irlam and Caddishead. **Thanks to everyone for your support!** [ Year 7 Take Part in an Engaging Theatre Workshop ](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/news/2026-11-09-year-7-take-part-in-an-engaging-theatre-workshop) ### Our School - [Headteacher's Welcome](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/welcome) - [Mission Statement](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/mission-statement) - [Staff](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/staff) - [Latest News](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/news) - [Family Handbook](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/family-handbook) - [Climate Change Action Plan 2025-26](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/climate-action-plan-2025-26) - [Governors](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/welcome/governors) - [Examination Results and School Performance ](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/results) - [Primary Transition ](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/primary-transition) - [Job Vacancies](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/job-vacancies) - [Train to Teach Here ](http://catholicsd.org.uk) - [International Partnership](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/international-partnership) - [Alumni](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/our-school/alumni) ### [Latest News](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/news) [![Image of Y10 Rugby Team Success!](https://files.schudio.com/stedmundarrowsmith/imagecache/150x150c/news/Y10_rugby_team.png)](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/news/2026-11-11-y10-rugby-team-success) #### [Y10 Rugby Team Success!](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/news/2026-11-11-y10-rugby-team-success) 11 November 2026 [![Image of Year 7 Take Part in an Engaging Theatre Workshop](https://files.schudio.com/stedmundarrowsmith/imagecache/150x150c/news/IMG_5935.jpg)](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/news/2026-11-09-year-7-take-part-in-an-engaging-theatre-workshop) #### [Year 7 Take Part in an Engaging Theatre Workshop](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/news/2026-11-09-year-7-take-part-in-an-engaging-theatre-workshop) 9 November 2026 [![Image of Former St Edmund Arrowsmith Pupil Inspires Young Reporters](https://files.schudio.com/stedmundarrowsmith/imagecache/150x150c/news/IMG_5873.jpg)](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/news/2026-11-09-former-st-edmund-arrowsmith-pupil-inspires-young-reporters) #### [Former St Edmund Arrowsmith Pupil Inspires Young Reporters](https://stedmundarrowsmith.schudio.com/news/2026-11-09-former-st-edmund-arrowsmith-pupil-inspires-young-reporters) 9 November 2026 ![St Edmund Arrowsmith Catholic High School](https://files.schudio.com/stedmundarrowsmith/images/logo/Citrix-Logo-Large.png) ### Contact Us **St Edmund Arrowsmith Catholic High School** Rookery Avenue Ashton-in-Makerfield.
