17. PAINSWICK RFC
|
| Painswick RFC , in Gloucestershire, is the
oldest village rugby club in England - a fact
commemorated in the Museum of Rugby at
Twickenham.
Early games were played in white or work
clothes making it difficutl for the players to
distinguish who was the opposition, so the
Painswick vicar at the time persuaded his
wife to cut up her red curtains for sashes for
the home team and the "Cherry and
Whites" name was born. Painswick still
proudly wear the colours today.
