1 déc. 1652 - The Wimbourne Wasps get their name from a nasty incident during a match against the Appleby Arrows.

Description:

The Wimbourne Wasps take their name from a nasty incident which occurred during a match against the Appleby Arrows in the mid-seventeenth century, when a Beater flying past a tree on the edge of the pitch noticed a wasps' nest among the branches and batted it towards the Arrows' Seeker, who was so badly stung that he had to retire from the game.
