Hockey Matches of the 70s

Here are two scenes from a hockey match played in 1977 ...

Thanks again to Edmund Lee Ah See for sharing the photos.

It was St Joe vs St Pat, and we trounced them 2-0.

I've provided a couple of zoomed-in pictures. Can you spot yourself or any of your friends ? Anyone have any stories on this and other hockey matches?

Snapshots at St Joe (Part 3)

Today's post features the sports facilities of St Joe - for football, hockey, sepak takraw, shot putt, other sports and exercises ...

The first shot is kindly contributed by Kuan Chee Kok and shows a somewhat aerial view of St Joe in the 70s or early 80s. I think this is a scene that most of us would find familiar ...

The subsequent shots are of St Joe as it looks today. These were taken over the weekend by Leo Sia. Thanks Leo!

Well, those are the sports facilities at St Joe, then and now. By the way, for some of you who asked about the woodwork workshop and the old chinning bars, Leo advises that unfortunately they have been removed.
