SOCCER

Lai Wah Cup Opening Match

ROYAL NAVY v. THE ARMY,

Seven Junior League Matches For Decision

[By "Rover"]

There are no 1st Division League matches this week owing to the meeting of Army and Navy at the Club ground on Saturday in the first semi-final for the Lai Wah Cup.

The "Lai Wah" Cup was presented by the Lai Wah Co. in 1925 for competition on the knock out system between teams represent ing the Royal Navy, the Army, Civilians and Chinese and the matches form an interesting guide to the selection of probable Interport Teams, Previous winners are:-

1925

1926

1927

1928

Civilians Civillans Army Civilians

The teams were drawn by the Hong Kong Football Council at their last meeting and although Navy would have preferred waiting a little longer for their round, yet they have a very serviceable tehm in the field for Saturday and the chances are very even for a great fight and a close result.

The full official programme for to-morrow, with officials, is as follows:-

Toms,

The big match at the Valley should be a most attractive one, By the arrival of one or two of H.M. ships, Navy have been able to field a likely looking lot. Evans ("Bruce"), Cope (Mag- nolia"), Van Tromp and Firth ("Hermes") represented Navy last year in Hong Kong. The new men are also well spoken of and although the Army team looks strong, I rather fancy Navy as the players have been getting in plenty of good work during the past week and have a knowledge of one another's ways also.

The teams are:-- Army: Fletcher (RA) Hooper (Queen's), Martin (K.O.S.B.); Byrne (Queen's), Sims (R.A.M.C.) captain, Skigge (K.O.S.B.); Everest K.O.S.B.), Stock (K.O.S.B.); Leach (R.A.), *Barclay (Queen's), Caldicott

(Queen's).

Holidays and certain week daye matches but none possess any and in some clubs the ladles have

been bitten by the Bowl's flon spécial feature with the exception of South China A v. Queen's Regi- The weather was not at all kind ment at Caroline Hill, and R.A.F. and the energetic secretary of the v.

Among the others,pecially with an odd number of Borderers should beat Small teams in each division. Units, Chinese Athletic Reserves should secure full points against South China B, and Navy should bout R.A. Kowloon and Eastern should also be amongst the win- ners of the day.

Next year I think it might be arranged to play matches at the beginning of the season on Wed- nesday afternoons. It is light up to well after 7 p.m. and a great many people have a half day. In any case there should be no dim- On Tuesday next the monthly culty in starting play At 5.15 p.m. meeting of the Hong Kong Foot-It might not suit the league; but I ball Council takes place and the recommend that the Spey Royal Emergency Committee specially dates should be fixed and they be appointed to deal with urgent Wednesdays at the beginning of
