Briars Rugby Old Boys
Old Boys Count
According to an Old Boy letter to the Old Boys Committee, here’s an estimate of the total number of Briars Old Boys:
Let’s assume we involve about 100 Rugby players each season. Let’s also assume the average player stays for 4 years. Each decade we enjoy 100 players x 2.5 = 250 players. Hence:
1950s— 150 players;
1960s— 200 players;
1970s— 250 players;
1980s— 250 players;
1990s— 250 players;
2000s— 250 players;
which makes a total of 1350. Let’s allow for some of the backs to have changed sex and many of the forwards to have succumbed to alcohol. Let’s round it out at 1000. That’s how many Briars Rugby Old Boys there are!The Old Boys Network
The Old Boys offer a series of memberships to Old Boys to allow them to support the club and to participate and support the current players, coaches and officials.
