Have you Represented NVC? Sign Up Here!

On the long drive to Crowland (some time ago now), we got chatting about members past and present. I thought we'd put together a list. What the hell, we'll include Burwell players as well.

So, if you represented either club at any time, send us your name and we'll add it to the list. Also, if club members remember names from days gone by, send them in! I'm guessing we should get to 100 sometime soon (will someone count please)! This should be interesting!
