Hi Sherrie,
have you seen these prior posts which mention the club ?
They confirm my first thought that old local newspapers might be your best source of info.

Googling shows an Ancestry member has researched their "Grancher" Alec Hopson (1908-1965), and has posted a team photo of his team Ruspidge Corinthians 1936-7. This is on a public tree so should be available to other Ancestry subscribers to view and copy, unfortunately I am not so can only aee this tiny preview, hopefully this link will help you. (I'm guessing this isn't your tree).

Which I now see is the same photo we're lucky enough to have on this site, the Ancestry tree suggests that Alec Hopson is "4th left middle row"
