This photo was taken when we won the Grantham Journal Shield

I can name the sports master, Mr. Hunt and headmaster, Mr. Dewey and maybe captain, John Ball. Myself, sat to the right of the captain John Ball.

Can anybody name the rest of the team?

See below for answers to this question. Thanks to all those who supplied information.
