 ABOUT BRAMPTON RUGBY CLUB

HISTORY OF THE CLUB          3rd January 2006

 

The Club began with an advertisement in the Georgetown Herald forty three years ago placed by a local rugby enthusiast called Len Lewis, enquiring if any men were interested in forming a rugby club.  After one month he had received only one call from another interested person Don Llewellyn.  Don had been a fighter pilot in World War II, had been shot down on a few occasions but his resolve and determination saw him through the war and he was now bringing his enthusiasm for the game of rugby to the local area. Progress was slow but contact was made with Peter Corris an employee of Northern Electric who claimed to have a list of 20 interested players.  A meeting was called by Don Lewis, to be held at his home at Shelley Street in Georgetown in December 1962. It was agreed to form a club and commence playing in April 1963.  Further meetings were scheduled and the “enthusiastic three” were joined by Ken Hogg, Les Judge and Jerry Cunningham, who was the first Canadian born member of the club and it was Jerry that christened the new club “The Beavers” and the story began.
