It is was great sadness to announce the passing of Mark Bagshaw AKA ( baggy/bagger) after his brave battle with cancer. A long serving rugby coach at Abraham Darby. Students enjoyed his company on lots of tours. Partial to a light snooze! His kind nature will be sorely missed.

They have done it! U12 county champions. Beating @HA_SportsDept in a very tight final 4-3. They have made so much progress this year and should be proud of themselves. Beating ludlow, priory and Idsall in knockout stages. Well done to all.
