All our teams are enjoying their most successful season ever. The first XI were entered in two cup competitions. In the A.F.A. Senior Cup they were finally beaten 5 4 by Crouch End Vampires who are in the 1st Division of the Southern Amateur League. In the Middlesex Junior Cup for which over 200 clubs entered, they reached the last 16, finally to be beaten by Hounslow Nomads who are the best team in the whole South West Middlesex League. The 2nd XI entered the A.F.A. Minor Cup and in the first round beat last year's losing finalists, Old Malvernians by 6 4. However, in the 2nd round they were overwhelmed by Borough Polytechnic of the Southern Amateur League, Division 2, losing 6 0. The Third XI entered the Nemean Memorial Cup, but fielded a depleted team of 9 men and lost bravely 2 1. The Season is now nearing its close but there will be matches at the School and at Pitshanger Park West, Scotch Common, every week until Easter. Spectators are cordially invited to come and watch the best team in the area and re-acquaint themselves with ex-schoolfriends. Those of you who intend to leave school this summer are especially welcome, particularly if you are keen to play for us. During the course of a season w visit many fine grounds in the London area and so enjoy the keen competition and generous hospitality that are the characteristics of A.F.A. football.
