MORE than 100 former players were welcomed to Crediton Rugby Club on Saturday when local solicitors Gilbert Stephens sponsored the Players Reunion Match again.

They were welcomed by Club president, Eddie Trick who said some former players had travelled long distances to be there.

There was a short silence to remember members John Daw and Chris Connell.

Eddie said the club was very proud of the people who had played at Crediton and of those who play now and those representing Devon. The club runs 17 teams.

After the lunch, most people piled out to cheer Crediton First Fifteen play Hornets from Weston Super Mare, the weather being such (Storm Jorge) that they all ended up more or less the same muddy colour.
