Success in the National U18s Cup is no accident — it is the product of years of hard work, strong coaching, and an exceptional group of players. The 2025-26 campaign has only reinforced the reputation as one of the strongest club colts sides in the country.

The story so far...
From the first match back in October last year, the Colts have continued to build upon that strong start to their campaign. Convincing wins in the early rounds have been strengthened with dominant matches in the finals stages. The Team continues to work as a cohesive unit, with their trademark strong attacking rugby and solid defence...

Round 1: Chinnor 20 – 31 Olney
Round 2: Amersham & Chiltern 7 – 52 Olney
Round 3: Harpenden 7 – 43 Olney
Round 4: Olney 50 – 0 Gordano
Quarter Final: Olney 60 – 3 Newton Abbot
Semi Final: Dorking 15 – 19 Olney

Total Points scored = 255
Total Points conceded = 52
Total Points difference = +203

It's all or nothing...
With six wins in a row in this year’s NCC the commitment, discipline and work rate continues to reward the lads with win-after-win.

Belief has become a huge strength. This is the 3rd NCC final in 4 years and the Colts now expect to compete at the highest level. Their dramatic 19-15 semi-final victory away at Dorking showed composure and resilience under pressure, qualities that define championship teams.

The belief these lads have in one another is not manufactured, not coached, it has grown between them. Cemented by something rugby builds unlike almost anything else... a BROTHERHOOD

To return to the Final one year on is quite simply, unbelievable and shows the belief these lads have...turning negative to positive - it didn’t break the team, it forged them. Galvanising the whole squad into something beyond the game, beyond the structures, beyond anything even the RFU can dream of.

This is for everyone who has helped on a journey from U6 to (for some) their last Colts match – parents, sponsors, club, coaches and the entire squad...every player who has pulled on The Shirt over these two seasons

This final belongs to all of them and nothing is going to stop them!

“OLNEY!”
