SEASON
NEW TALENT MUST BE UNEARTHED
PROMISING PLAYERS AMONG RESERVES PRACTICE MATCHES NEEDED
(By "Rover")
ERE will be no great changes in the Royal Army Medical Corps team in the Third Divi- sion of the Hong Kong Football League. AII last year's players are again available and no new talent has come to light yet, although it is likely that several changes will be made follow- ing practice matches.
The Medicals met with a fair amount of success last season and, as they will be playing practically the same team, they should have that advantage of having played together before.
Howells, who played during the latter part of last season. will captain the team and occupy the pivot position. He is an excellent footballer he played for the Corps. at Home - and can fill any position in the defence with credit.
