Richard Darby
Preferred position: Unknown
Jon Noble
Preferred position: Defender
I joined Northampton Saints Hockey Club in 1983 at the age of 12 and have been with the club ever since…
I wanted to be forward but gradually got pushed further and further back and spent near enough the majority of my playing career in the back line as a sweeper / centre back or right back.
I have played for all the sides in the men’s section and spent from 1992 through to 2008 in the first team with a couple of spells as captain.
I am now a L2 Hockey Coach and spend my time coaching our Juniors, Mens & Ladies teams with games thrown in for whichever team needs a wily old defender….
Sad as it is but when there is no hockey it is just not fun…
Richard Smith

After a 13 year absence from hockey I have returned to playing and in my first game I lasted 13 minutes before bleeding all over the astro at Rugby School. I like setting up goals for Karl Flowers and eating bland sausages.
