SMAD. An Organ of Student Opinion. 1936. Volume 7. Number 9.

[introduction]

The Varsity Senior A team has as good material this year as it has ever had. Yet the whole team plays a poor game as a team. There is a palpable lack of co-operation. The girls do not know each other's play. With solid and regular practice this year's team could carry off the Wellington championship. True, they would have to beat Wellington East with their unassailable defence and their sure goalies, and too, Kia Ora A, with their swift centres and bright passing throughout.

But Varsity has the stuff. Every girl in the A team is a first-class player, and it can also be said that there is not one who, in favourable circumstances, might not rank as a Wellington rep.

But no one can do much in a team which does not practise regularly. The season is yet young and we can hope for great things from Varsity A if they will buck up and attend practices, and if those practices could be held in a well-lighted and full-sized gym.
