Wembley
April 16, 2013

wembley2Nan Williams, a former England international and volunteer at The Hockey Museum, has been researching the history of the Wembley internationals that were played between 1951-1991.

There must be loads of memorabilia, photos and stories that you all have that Nan would be interested in. Does anyone have photos of those famous Wembley teas – the sandwiches were always gone by the time the players arrived! – or images from their school coach or train journeys or examples of the badges and rosettes that were always on sale outside?

Nan would like to interview a number of you that have had Wembley experiences over the years, so I hope you won’t mind if you receive a phone call? Even if you don’t and you have a story to tell, please contact her. Even the story of Lesley Hobley’s unbeaten 8 minutes at Wembley is worth hearing again!
