Young Teddington RFC fans' passion wins chance to meet Harlequins hero

Yes: No question who these youngsters were supporting
Teddington RFC’s passion for Harlequins has not gone unnoticed by the powers that be at the Stoop.
The Bushy Park-based club’s youngsters cheered on centre Matt Hopper to a try in the Premiership champions’ 28-25 win over Gloucester at the Stoop on November 3.
As a result, this group of fans from Teddington’s junior ranks will get the chance to meet their hero in person at Quins’ home game with Worcester Warriors on November 30.
Head coach John Kingston said: “It is fantastic to see the enjoyment on the childrens’ faces after Matt scored his try.
“Teddington have had a long association with the club and their support for Quins over the years has been exceptional.
“The passion shown in this image is a great reflection of the enjoyment the children get at the Stoop.”
