It is with deepest sadness that we inform you all of the passing away of Graham Smith on Sunday 17th May,
Graham was a very quick backrow who loved to score tries out wide using his pace. Graham started his playing career at Vipers, and succeeded in making England Colts.

Graham joined the Police and played for Leicestershire, England Police and British Police, alongside Dean Richards. Graham also had a spell with Leicester Tigers before returning to Vipers. Graham joined Syston in the 1980's to play alongside his brother Phil in the Syston 1st team on many occasions.
Our thoughts are with all the family.

Graham Smith's funeral will be held at 2:30pm on the12th June at Great Glen Crematorium LE8 9DJ. Afterwards the Wake will be at Syston RFC Clubhouse.
