We are grateful to Simon Fordham for sending through this photo taken on a typically muddy day at Hinchingbrooke School after a match between H&P Vets and East Northants Vets on 4th April, 2004.

Presiding over proceedings is Gordon Ascroft, and we recognise Barnaby Perks, Simon Fordham, Nick Wright, Mark Belchier and Duncan Simmonds from Huntingdon – who are the other H&P players? Suggestions on a postcard (or an email to sm@rugbycluboflondon.co.uk) and we’ll update the full squad as we get the names.

If anyone has any more old H&P team photos, we would love to post them on the website, alongside some more topical content as well hopefully.

At the H&P AGM on 17th June, the draw was made for the Hunts and Peterborough Cup for senior men’s teams.

Match 1 – Thorney RFC v BYE

Match 2 – St Ives RFC v St Neots RFC

Match 3 – Peterborough Lions RFC 2s v Deepings RFC

Match 4 – Huntingdon & District RFC v Peterborough RFC 2s

In the semi finals, the winner of Match 3 will be at home to Thorney RFC, and the winner of Match 4 will be at home to the winner of Match 2.

The Finals will be held on H&P Finals Day on a date to be confirmed, at Huntingdon RFC. All results of matches should be emailed through to the fixture secretary by the winning side as soon as possible after the match, and obviously the competition is subject to there being enough time in the calendar once we return to rugby. We hope that after the fulfilment of league games, that the H&P Cup will be the priority for our seven teams and look forward to seeing you at Finals Day.
