Stefan Scott is the latest Uppie to grace Cumbria Crack’s Hailers Hall of Fame.
He managed to hail the ball at Workington Hall after a tough three-and-a-half hour game in the town that mainly took place in the car park of the Travelodge.
There were a few casualties of the traditional no-rules football game – vehicles in the car park came a cropper due to the crush of bodies in a scrum that didn’t dip in energy all night.
It was the second game of the Uppies & Downies in 2025 and Uppies scooping this win means they have won the series. Downies will be playing for their pride in the next game on Saturday.
Stefan was given £500 by Speed Competitions for his win – and said he would donate it to charity.
Here’s our photos from the Good Friday game.
Here’s our hailers hall of fame too – every hailer we could find from the 1800s to the present day.
And if you want to find out more about the game, here’s a whistlestop tour through its history.
Here’s how the game unfolded on Easter Tuesday – and we’ll be here on Saturday, bringing you all the action as it happens too!
