Gloucester Rugby, the Players, Hardback Book

Gloucester Rugby, the Players Hardback

Hardback

Description

Many great players and many great characters have played for Gloucester Rugby in the 149 years of the Club's history. Choosing the 375 players to include in this book was not an easy task. The reader will find that all players who have made 100 First XV appearances are included, as are all players who played for their country while members of the Club. All club captains are also included and a number of colourful characters and loyal club servants who were keen to play for the First or Second XVs each Saturday (or wet Wednesday evening) throughout long careers. An appendix contains the career statistics of all 1,985 players known to have appeared for the Gloucester 1st XV. The contributors to this book are all members of Gloucester Rugby Heritage, a charity run by volunteers and supported by Gloucester Rugby and Gloucestershire Archives. The book is the fourth in a series of five books, previous volumes having recorded the history of the Kingsholm ground, representative matches played there, and Gloucester Rugby in cup competitions.
