Uppies clinched the first win of the Uppies & Downies series of 2026.
Nineteen-year-old Andy Hunter managed to get the ball up to Workington Hall on Good Friday after around four-and-a-half hours of play of the mass no rules football game.
He now has his place in the Uppies & Downies Hailers Hall of Fame here – who will win the next two games on Easter Tuesday and next Saturday?
It dates back hundreds of years and we were there, covering it all as it happened.
