  3. Sports Greatest All Rounders • Max Woosnam – Football, Tennis, Cricket, Snooker and Golf • Max Woosnam was an extraordinary sportsman, not only did he captain Manchester City and England at football, he was also Olympic champion at Tennis, winning Wimbledon! He scored a Lord’s century in cricket, made a 147 break in Snooker and just to round things off he was a scratch golfer! • Fred Perry – Table Tennis and Tennis • Fred taught himself to play in this way. He was world table tennis champion at 19. Frederick John Perry was a British tennis and table tennis player and former World No. 1 from England who won 10 Majors including eight Grand Slams.

  4. CB Fry – Cricket, Football, Athletics and Rugby • Charles Burgess ‘CB’ Fry was possibly as great an all-rounder as the world has ever seen. He represented England at both cricket and football in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He played for Southampton in the FA Cup final in 1902. He played rugby for the Barbarians, and just because he could he equalled the world record for the long jump. Cricket was his top sport, however and he was an all-rounder. He once took 6-78 with his fast bowling, had a high score of 258 not out in first class cricket.He was also a super interesting and enigmatic man and I would urge you to read more about him. • Eddie Eagan – Boxing and Bobsleigh • Destined to remain the answer to a trivia question to which no one knows the answer, Eagan is the only Olympian to win gold at both summer and winter Games. He defeated SverreSørsdal of Norway to take the light heavyweight boxing gold in Antwerp in 1920, before turning to the four-man bobsleigh 12 years later in Lake Placid.

  5. Liam Botham – Football, Cricket, Rugby Union and Rugby League • Liam followed in his fathers footsteps by playing county cricket for Hampshire but, perhaps realising he would never be as good as Dad (see later in list(who would?)), he became a rugby union wing for Cardiff, then Newcastle, and briefly made the England squad. When Leeds Rhinos came calling, Liam completed an unlikely sporting hat-trick by switching codes to rugby league. • Eddie Charlton – Snooker, Surfing and Australian Rules football • As ‘Steady Eddie’, Charlton was one of the slowest players ever to wield a snooker cue. After one match, Cliff Thorburn observed: ‘Before the match I had a suntan – now it is gone.’ Away from the taable, this was the man who was part of a winning team in the Australian surfing championship and who also played in the Aussie Rules first division for 10 years. In 1956, he was selected to carry the Olympic torch on its journey to Melbourne.
