Season Of The

HKPSA SURPRISE RECREIO IN 2ND DIVISION

By ROBERT TAY

Kowloon Dock Club, the second division team who wore promoted to the first division league barely two seasons ago may not win the Colony first division league title this season. They may probably finish up eventually somewhere near the middle of the league table, but they are the team that will be most remembered in the 1958 league. Handicapped by the absence on leave of most of their star bowlers at the beginning of the season they surprised every follower of the game by handing the top-favoured Recreio “A” squad a 4-1 defeat. Ten days ago they practically put Kowloon Cricket Club out of the running for the first division Championship honours when they edged out the cricketers by a 4-1 margin,
