Richard Moon, Head of the Sports Law Department at Berrymans Solicitors LLP, played in a rugby match this weekend to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the foundation of the Harlequins Rugby Club.
The match was between two invitational teams which were selected by former rugby legends, Bob Hillier, a former England Captain and full-back and Jason Leonard, former President of the RFU & a Rugby World Cup winner.
Richard was invited to play for Jason Leonard’s XV against the Bob Hillier XV.
Both teams included many former international rugby players from the last 30 years including Peter Winterbottom, Micky Skinner, Will Greenwood and Jason himself. The game, watched by around 5,000 spectators, was narrowly won by the Jason Leonard XV.
Richard said, “After the game I vowed that this would definitely be my last ever game of rugby but I said that in 1997 when I retired from the first-class game but this time I mean it”!
