Almost, but not quite

In making his debut for the Under 12s against Gloucester Saxons U13 at Glozball on Sunday Edward Stunt became only the third year 5 player to play for Leadonites.

But at 9 years 8 months and 13 days he was over two months older than Leadonites' youngest ever player, Archie Allcock who took to the court against Worcester Wolves Cubs on 14th November 2015 aged 9 years 6 months and 3 days old.

Leadonites' only other year 5 player was Fraser Renfrew-Clarke who, at 9 years 8 months and 13 days old, made his debut for the club against Gloucester Blazers (the forerunner club to Saxons) on the 12th March 2016.

To complete the circle, Fraser was the Under 12s captain in Edwards first game for the club.
