Pyman Cup League Tables 1903 to 1910.

There appear to be no records in existence of the Leagues prior to the Second World War so these records have been extracted from the files of the “Mail” Hartlepool, the archives of Durham County RFU., the Durham County South District Junior RFU, Hartlepool B B O B RFC., Hartlepool Rovers FC., West Hartlepool RFC, the Robert Wood Collection held by the Museums Service in Hartlepool and from the memories and recollections of players and Committee members over the years. They remain a “work in progress”.....Chris McLoughlin.
