Chris Figgis (2004-2022)

Chris was my favourite type of sportsman. Classy but understated. He never wanted the limelight but would win matches without a fuss. Cricket was never his number one sport but he clearly had talent and the battle was always to convince him to believe in himself. He captained the first team on occasion in his final year at KC. A pleasure to be around he had the utmost repsect from his peers and from the coaches. My longlasting memories of Chris though are not on the sports field. It was the quiet chats in the quad in passing, reminding me of how poor Nottingham Forest were at the weekend or him moaning about how poor Fred was in the United team. The games of pool in the common room and the support that he gave the current year 12s. He was always there. They are my memories of a lovely boy who gave so much to everything and everybody. He achieved so much in such a short time. My thoughts are with Sean, Steph and Ali at this impossible time.
