Five Rivers Morris - The History
J. Brenner, Bagman 2008/2009
Five Rivers Morris was formed in 2008 because a bunch of like minded blokes in Sheffield wanted to dance some morris. We still do, so we still do.
Some of said bunch of blokes are award winning dancers, while others arrived as complete novices. What everyone shares is an appetite for beer, fun and good morris.
Because the team started pretty recently, there ain't a lot of history to tell so far. This is what there is:

First ever practice, above the King George IV pub on Infirmary Road |
