Nan William’s work to uncover the full history of the playing of hockey at Wembley Stadium continues and she has recently received some fascinating stories from former internationals Karen Brown, Sue Slocombe and Val Robinson. In an attempt to also find some local knowledge of this annual hockey event, she recently managed to get an article in the Harrow Observer (see photograph) looking for anyone who might have worked or been associated with the running of the events between 1951-91. Following publication, Nan received a number of very interesting responses from people who remember attending the hockey matches but sadly, no contact from any former employees. I’m sure that Nan will keep searching.
