1991 - Hartlepool BBOB v Hartlepool Athletic - Fred Jacques Trophy

What we know about this image :

Before becoming Company Captain with the 1st Company, Fred Jacques was instrumental in the founding of Hartlepool Athletic R.F.C. in 1943. Following his death in 1988, the 'Fred Jacques Memorial Trophy' was inaugurated to be played annually between the first teams of B.B.O.B and Athletic. Sadly this tradition ended when Athletic were unable to maintain their club status after the season of 2010-11.

  Matches often served as 'double headers' for this trophy, merit table or league fixtures. The first fifteen finals saw Brigade winning nine and Athletic six. Both clubs experienced difficulties from 2004 but ironically it was Athletic who won every further final until being forced to close.
