Macclesfield High School’s year Eight team has become the first in the school’s history to win a Macclesfield Schools’ FA Cup.

After a mammoth four inter-school cup finals were staged in one day at Wilmslow High School, the team from the Park Lane school won the cup with a 6-1 victory over their counterparts from Eaton Bank school.

Liam Risley hit two for the Macc High team, with Joe Symons, Daniel Pemberton, Jack Naylor and Richard Knight also on the mark, Danny Wilkins netting Eaton Bank’s consolation.
