FEATURES OF THE ANNUAL-
REPORT
LEASE OF GROUND
The annual meeting of the Hong Kong Hockey Club will be held on Wednesday, when the annual report will be presented:-
The ground "HI" at King's Park was again allotted to the Club and the Y.M.C.A., but in order to encourage the growth of civilian hockey in the Colony the use of the ground was granted to the Club de Recreio and the Ladies' Hockey Clubs on numerous oc- casions. Considering that the ground was used so extensively it is in fairly good condition after the summer's rest. A five years' lease was again request- ed from the Government but owing to the present shortage of sports grounds in the Colony this request was not. granted. A further request has been made, however, to the Committee ap-. pointed by the Government to enquire. into the recreational needs of the Colony and your Committee has, in ad- dition to a five years' sole lease, asked the Recreation Committee to provide further hockey grounds.
The Committee has under eonsidera- tion the erection of a club house and
