More than 50 Interclub Appearances (1946-2007)
Chris Williams recently waded through the old records to find out who had represented Empire at Interclub and how many times they had appeared. He has come up with the following list of members who have represented Empire at Interclub since 1946, and have made more than 50 appearances. Certificates were presented to these players at the club’s Presentation Night. It is anticipated that in the future an award will be made to those reaching significant milestones.
