David Duckham
David John Duckham was born in Coventry and educated at King Henry VIII School, David played for Old Coventrians RFC before joining Coventry FC (RU) in 1967. He made his international debut against Ireland in 1969 and quickly established himself as one of England’s best centres, playing alongside John Spencer. His game was marked by pace, swerves, sidesteps and an ability to wrong-foot his opponents. He played for England until 1976 winning 36 caps. David was part of the successful British and Irish Lions tour to New Zealand in 1976 and encouraged by coach Carwyn James, he found an attacking freedom that was lacking in the English game. He scored 11 tries in his 16 games on tour. He was the only English back in the 1973 Barbarians side that beat the All Blacks 23-11, after which he was given the nickname ‘Dai’ by the Welsh fans because he played like one of their own. David was awarded the MBE for his services to rugby football in 1977 and is currently President of the Wooden Spoon Society.
