We are very grateful to OPs for any help with names and details for this year’s crop of photos from the archives.
All team photographs taken in recent years are properly labelled, but there are still plenty of earlier examples
in the archives, such as the ones below, which are not. Any help you can offer is very much appreciated and we
hope you enjoy looking at the photos too!
Thank you to everyone who got in touch with the
names of the boys in the rugby team photograph in
last year’s magazine (page 14 if you would like to refer
back to it) and for confirming that it was the Under
16 XV from 1980. You also helped us to fill in quite
a few names in the Lyndhurst photograph which also
featured on page 14 of last year’s magazine. Full details
are below.
