Under 18 winners in 1990

Pictured below is the team that won the National Under 18 Minor Counties Championship in April 1990. There are one or two that can’t be identified. Can anyone recognise them?

Seven years later, in 1997, with the likes of Nick and Richard Pert, Ed Player and David Spence in the team, Suffolk Under 18s won the main Counties Championship. Those were the days!
