John Davies Football Club

Junior footballers coached by Mr Rowlston through the schoolboy league show cup winning successes, keenly followed earlier by Rob Barber before being shown among the 1970s school team. Through later years Mr Bundy took over role of coach before finally handing over to Mr Pilmore, although Mr Rowlston always kept in touch as the senior assistant at this New Street School.
