Albrighton United JW.Hunt cup winners 66 /68 |
The JW Hunt Cup is an annual charity football competition for teams based in the West Midlands area of England.It was started in 1926 and I believe there are pictures of this at Molineux.
Albrighton won the JW Hunt Cup in 1965/66 beating Oxley and 1967/68 beating Northicote Old Boys.

I’m not sure which year this is from but they have clearly just won the cup and look very happy about it.
My Dad the late Keith Harrison ( Charley) is in the front row far right, next to him is Brian Grateley. I don’t know who the other players are but I would be interested to know if anyone recognises anyone.
My Dad played for Albrighton for many years in the 1960’s having had a trial for Aston Villa in 1956. These are cherished memories of my Dad and my mother played a big part too , she used to wash the kit for the entire football team, I can still remember it hanging on our washing line in the garden.
