TODAY we feature two photos from Southport Rugby Union Football Club, taken during September, 1995.
The seniors pic features one of the players bursting past his opponent as a team-mate looks on. The jerseys were sponsored by Fletcher’s Solicitors at the time.
The picture of the juniors looks like a training session is taking place. Are any of them still involved with the club?
The club has since going from strength to strength – the first team were promoted after winning their league last year while the junior section is also thriving.
The new season starts later this month, with any eager players invited to get in touch, while supporters are also more than welcome to attend games at the Waterloo Road ground. More details are on the club’s website at: www.southportrufc.com
If you recognise anyone in either photo, and knows what they are doing now, contact LookBack on: 01704-536655 or e- mail us at: visiternews@southportvisiter.co.uk
If you have any nostalgic photos you would like to share with readers, email them to us at the same address, or bring them into our office at 26-32 Tulketh Street. We can scan pics in while you wait.

Hi,
I just recieved a page from the Southport visiter(10/08/07) through the post from my Brother. Imagine my surprise to see a picture of me playing Rugby for Southport(I'm the one with the Ball about to score one of many classic tries!). I think the other guy in the photo is called Gareth Henderson.
My name is Chris Jones(37 years of age) and have lived in the Charente Maritime Region of France for almost 3 Years now. Along with my wife(Valerie) we run a Holiday rental business and I work Full time with two Artisans renovating old French Properties for mainly English clients.(See our website www.the-cloisters.co.uk )
Ours was a classic story of watching all the "no going back programs" on Tv and decided to pack in our Lengthy Civil Service careers in Customs and Excise and take a gamble. Thankfully the gamble paid off and we love our New Lifestyle and Friends.
I hope this is of Interest to you. If you need any more info or if you think your readers would be interested in a small article of our Experiences in France so far don't hesitate to contact me.
Regards
Chris Jones
