Heave!

Loftus tug of war team May 1981 at the King George playing field Guisborough in the fifth Northern Area Championships; the team won three awards. The original newspaper cutting was entitled ‘Loftus Lads on the Pull’. “Terry Clarke has advised: “Well if my memory serves me correctly from back man to front man; John ‘Gong’  Garner (Anchor man), Danny McConnell, Terry Garner, Rob Spoor (from Saltburn), Simon ?, Leo Bowman, Dave Harris (from Liverton Mines), ??. Four of this team are still pulling after all these years and they are as follows: Joe Cook, Dave Harris, Robert Spoor and John Garner.”  Can you name any of remaining members?
