Hockey Fixtures, 1964

Bootham. The hiring of one of the Clifton Tennis Club courts has enabled mush more coaching to be done and there are several promising junior players. The problem at the beginning of the term was to find a partner for Headlam. Initially Hoare was tried, with Clarke and Wroe as second pair and Russell and Shaw as third pair. Later on Todd replaced Hoare who then paired with Russell. As in the previous year the playing of matches has greatly improved each person's standard of play, and with four of this year's team available next year we should have a strong side.

SWIMMING, 1963

Captain of Swimming: R. L. BRUCE. The weather has again been the main obstacle as far as the School

Swimming is concerned. Team training started in the York public baths early in the Summer term, and continued (at a lower temperature!) after the School baths opened in June.

The two matches were both away this year. In the first, as anticipated, we were defeated by a strong Bootham team; but at Welbeck College the team did exceptionally well. It was not until the final event that the result was settled, when with a weakened team we lost the 4 x 2 lengths free style relay. The final result was Welbeck 46 points, St. Peter's 42. 51
