Harlow "Rams" seen here in the plain jerseys competing against a visiting Czech side at their Ram Gorse ground. The club is still here and thriving, with three senior gents sides, plus vets, ladies, and junior teams turning out each week during the season to entertain.
The picture above was taken in April 2012, when Spanish side Poblenou Enginyers visited to play Harlow's "Saints". Surprisingly this was a league match - the Spanish side having played in the Greene King Premiere league for several seasons. The month before the Saints had travelled to Barcelona for their away fixture , taking a 25+ strong party of players and supporters. More information on and photos of Harlow Saints RFC can be found at

this has been an interesting distraction for me as I lived in Harlow in my teenage years, and married there. my children were all born in the hospital. once divorced i moved to the west country, but enjoyed this little trip down memory lane. so much was familiar!
