Winter Sports Tournament
Winter Sports Tournament.
There was an elaborate report on this matter giving the opinions of more than a dozen of the active sports bodies—each had some support to lend to the idea, but the general opinion was that a winter tournament was not practicable owing to difficulty of getting leave except at Easter—the double burden of billeting. Which would be a tax on the managing commiettees, and the problem of getting permission to use grounds at the end of winter.
However, many felt that the Idea was good in that it would give fresh importance to some of the lesser sports bodies—and to the attractive suggestion of a golf tournament. Discussion on this topic is not yet closed.
