South Yorkshire Times December 7, 1968

The recent death of Yorkshire’s Cyril Turner has prompted a reader most kindly to show us the accompanying photograph of Wath Athletic C.C. in 1922.

In that season they were fourth in the Yorkshire Council table (Played 19, won 13. lost one. drew five) and they won the “Times” Cup. Cyril Turner is seen in the centre of the photo immediately behind the trophy.

The names of others will recall many pleasant memories for old Wathonians.

At the rear. reading from the left, are W. Jaques, T. Temple, W. Kelly, C. Robson, T. Wilson, J. (Male, A. T. Thomson (then President), G. Jackson, W. D. Edgerton. J. Gray, J. Feirn, J. Houghton, A. Turner and H. Breislin, sen. The players are H. Adams, I. Sleight, W. Reader, S. Ross, T. Hargreaves, F. Turner (captain), L. Cutts, A. Holt, I. Turner, W. Deighton and I. Pell.

Cyril Turner is in the centre of the foreground and the young man on the extreme right is one of Mr. Breislin’s sons. The photograph is credited to A. P. Garfitt of Wath.
