Finite factor groups of are called Hurwitz groups. Here we prove that apart from 2G2(3), G2(2), G2(3) and G2(4), all the groups 2G2(32n+1) and G2(q), q = pn, p € P, are Hurwitz groups. For the proof, (2, 3, 7) structure constants are calculated from the character tables [2], [7], and then with the lists of maximal subgroups [8], [5], the existence of generating triples is deduced.
