Sporting success
Home » Experience »
Sport Priestley enjoyed unbeatable success in 2025 when not one, but two of its teams were named national college champions.
Our men’s first XI football team finished the season winning every match and collecting four titles at county, regional and national level. Sport Priestley’s women’s rugby team clinched the national cup final with a 24-20 victory over Calderdale College.
It was not only teams that performed well. Individuals excelled in sports as diverse as tennis, karate, wind surfing, weightlifting and many more.
