Not quite sure whether it's an official rule, but the larger societies could obviously put out a fairly decent members-only side of 20 year olds who'd have youth & pace etc. But I think that would be frowned upon, and that the done thing is to have at least a few old lags / Captains and other ranks wheezing their way up and down the pitch.

It's clear that you have to be members to play but some societies do have a few decent players. I heard some big time scouts will be watching

Dave-
I played for Southover last year, and every single player was a member.

Don't worry charlie even if you do use non members you dont stand a chance this year.
I heard CBS are struggling to get players and are finally coming to the realisation that they really aren't all that

THe thing with CBS are if your cap don't fit you don't get in. the bonfire cup CBS team is kept between a few members and very difficult to even get a look in. same goes for the rest of the year really.
