Mens 1st XV
The table below shows theresults for the season for the 1st XV. Over time I will try to capture lower XVs but it is a long job – so any help appreciated.
Sadly – no actual results for this year and just an indication of W/L/D for most, if not all, of the games.

Below we have scans of the menu for the Club Ball. It seems to have been customary to get signatures of the guests – at least that’s what George Fawcett used to do – as this was his menu copy. This year the ball was set in honour of Jon Boreham who was one of the founder members of the Club.
