Biography

Monsieur Curtet played rugby football for France at the 1920 Antwerpen Olympics, and won a silver medal. He played for Club Athlétique de la Société Générale (CASG) in 1920-21. However, nothing else is known of his life, including his given name. One problem with the 1920 Olympics is that French rugby does not recognize them as a full international and they don’t bother collecting the data. Technically the 1920 French team was a “French XV” rather than “France.”
