The place kick record is reputed to be 91m 100yd at Richmond Athletic Ground, London, by Douglas Francis Theodore Morkel (1886-1950) in an unsuccessful penalty for South Africa v. Surrey on 19 Dec 1906. This was not measured until 1932. In the match Bridlington School 1st XV v. an Army XV at Bridlington, E Yorks on 29 Jan 1944, Ernie Cooper (b. 21 May 1926), captaining the school, landed a penalty from a measured 74m 81yd from the post with a kick which carried over the dead ball line. The record in an international was set at 64.22m 70yd 88in by Paul Huw Thorburn (b. 24 Nov 1962) for Wales v. Scotland on 1 Feb 1986.
