Celebrating 100 Years of Rugby

On Friday evening we welcomed back our rugby players and coaches of the past to celebrate 100 years of rugby being played on our iconic Home Field.  

Celebrating the successes of those who have donned black and gold stripes, our coaches and players reminisced key tries, collapsed scrums and the occasional stolen line out. Our guests delighted over a specially curated exhibition looking back on rugby at the school with team photos and news snippets from our archive. 

Highlights included the Yugoslavia tour of 1985, our 2002 Girls VII’s team coming runners up in the National Schools’ Sevens and several rugby photos featuring former staff as players themselves. This was wound up by Mr Taylor, our Director of Rugby, addressing the guests on behalf of Caterham School to thank those who continually show support through playing, coaching, and most importantly cheering from the side lines.
