A PARADE
Since this column started it has been the custom to award the place of honour at the top of the Sports Parade to an individual, a team or a unit for some particularly outstanding feat or achievement in the field of sport.
This week we welcome to the top spot a group of men who have not on this occasion won any cups or medals, but who have given their services willingly to assist others along the way to honours.
