Ray Hamer was a talented halfback, the type of which Featherstone Rovers seemed to roll off the production line in the 1930s. Unlike other talented players who were quickly sold, Hamer played ten seasons at Featherstone, although the latter part of his career was interrupted by World War Two. After occasional appearances as a teenager, his breakthrough year was 1936 when he settled down into a very productive half-back partnership with Wilf Evans following a long term injury to Allen Ward. When newcomer Harold Moxon took his place at scrum-half, Hamer switched to stand-off with equal success. The Moxon-Hamer half-back combination won Featherstone the 1940 Yorkshire Cup, and served Rovers well in the early war years before injuries finally took their toll. The emergence of newcomers Jack Higgins and Dick Allman brought Ray Hamer’s Featherstone career to an end and he transferred to Castleford.
