Rugby Reunion for Mike Davis and Phil Jones

Mike Davis and Phil Jones hold legendary status in the annals of Sherborne rugby having coached four consecutive unbeaten XVs in the late 1970s.

To celebrate Mike’s retirement from coaching in 2014, we invited all members of those XVs back to Sherborne and the high percentage turnout was testament to the esteem in which Mike and Phil are held.

An excellent dinner in the OSR was followed by speeches culminating in words from the two great men themselves. A very happy but emotional occasion – thanks especially to David Dally (a 78) whose enthusiasm and hard work made it all possible.
