The following photo’s are shamelessly pinched from Alan Righton’s Facebook post on the Stratford upon Avon forum. The match pitted Town against Pegasus, one of the finest amateur sides of their day made up of students from Oxford and Cambridge University. The match was played at Pearcecroft the home of Stratford rugby club, presumably because of a higher capacity, but we know little more. Can anyone remember the match or recognize any of the names on the team sheet.?
