TWO fathers and sons made history as they represented the same team at the weekend.
Littlemore Rugby Club saw John Keown at full back, with son Archie at scrum half, while Jack Massey excelled as the right wing, with his father Darren Massey at openside flanker.

The fathers and sons played as Littlemore won 24-17 at home to Didcot II in the Counties 4 Tribute Berks Bucks & Oxon North division, their first league victory of the season following two defeats on the road in the early stages of the campaign.
It was the first time since the club’s formation in 1976 that two generations played simultaneously, with the claiming of a victory an added bonus.
Massey Senior scored two crucial tries during the game, however it was his son who pipped him to the man of the match award in Littlemore’s first home game of the season.
