Rydal Penrhos School

Fives

For the un-initiated, Fives (also known as Eton Fives) is a hand-ball game, similar to Rugby Fives, played as doubles in a three-sided court. The object is to force the other team to fail to hit the ball ‘up’ off the front wall, using any variety of wall or ledge combinations as long as the ball is played ‘up’ before it bounces twice.

Fives was reintroduced at the school in autumn 2009, and now pupils play in their lunchtimes on the school’s two Fives courts.

Fives is becoming more prominent at the school, with many pupils getting involved.
