Leslie Grainge
I assume from your user name you are a relative of Les Grainge. He looks very young in the photograph, would you know whether he's wearing a Bradford Northern shirt. Would you know whether he won any cups, championships, medals, etc while at Bradford Northern. Would you have any details about his life before and after Bradford Northern, e.g. did he play Rugby Union during and after his time at Woodhouse Grove School before converting to rugby league? Would you know whether he married Eileen E E Chase (born October→December 1923 in Romford) during July→September 1945 in Keighley? Best Regards. DynamoDegsy (talk) 12:50, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

Les Grainge
This talk is written and the photograph uploaded on behalf and with permission of Les Grainge's only child (daughter). I do not know what shirt he his wearing in the photograph. Leslie had two gold medals that were donated to Rugby League Heritage Centre in Huddersfield. He played rugby for Otley (Union?), Bradford Northern and Leeds. He played Rugby Union after his time at Woodhouse Grove School but switched when he realised he could make money playing League. He married Mildred Wren from Keswick. The photograph was professionally taken and has March 1930 written on the back but I do not know who took it. There is a warning about copyright on the image but do know now the best way to overcome this. Any help appreciated. Kmgrainge (talk) 13:54, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
