Gloucester up for the cup: Gloucester Rugby in cup competitions

No customer reviews yet ISBN 9781906978594

This book is a comprehensive record of matches played by Gloucester Rugby in cup competitions - from the early 1900s, when cup rugby was rather frowned upon, to victory in the first national knockout competition in 1972, to the highs and lows, glory and despair, of cup matches up to 2019.

Richly illustrated with photographs of these often epic encounters, this book will bring back memories of Gloucester competing in English, Anglo-Welsh and European Cup campaigns. The Club's participation in Tens and Sevens rugby is also covered.

This book has been produced by Gloucester Rugby Heritage, a charity run by volunteers, and supported by Gloucester Rugby and Gloucestershire Archives. It is the third in a series of five books, previous volumes having recorded the history of the Kingsholm ground and representative matches played there, whilst future publications will recount Gloucester players and the full playing record of the Club.
