On Sunday 5^th February at 2pm Lyon House will travel to Sherborne to compete for the first time for the Hodder-Sunderland Cup writes Dan Hodder, Housemaster of Lyon House.

Ben Sunderland (Housemaster of Lyon House, Sherborne) and I hope to make an annual fixture between the Lyon Houses of our two historic schools. As part of this fixture, the boys of Lyon with the leadership of Oliver Crossfield have organised football shirts. To publicise the event and to mark what we all hope in Lyon will be the start of a long traditional we wanted to re-create the photograph of the King’s 1st XI Football Team that played Sherborne over 120 years ago in 1896! An album of the photos can be seen below.

Everyone linked to Lyon and the wider King’s community is welcome to attend and support the match. The kick-off is planned for 2 pm on the main playing fields at Sherborne School. Please contact Mr Hodder for more information.
