How can I find out if my father is still the youngest person to be capped for Yorkshire in boys rugby league?

Question

I am sure that at the time in the 1920's he was the youngest schoolboy to be capped for Yorkshire. Most of the players at that time were 14/15 and I know he was a lot younger than that. How can I find out if he is still the youngest.

Answer 1

you could try contacting the yorkshire post. if someone younger has played, they would have included it in an article on the match in question, seeing as it's something of an achievement :O) otherwise you could try contacting the british amateur rugby league association. they might be able to find out for you
