Judging from last year's Tournament where Victoria finished second to a very strong Auckland side after winning the earlier rounds in a most convincing manner, the team should perform reasonably well.

The biggest factor for this year's team to overcome is the loss of last year's top player, Harrison Waterhouse, the NZU champion and New Zealand representative. His brilliance was the main factor in the team's success last year and he will be sorely missed.

Two members of last year's team, Robert Armstrong and Robert Tricklebank will be playing again this year and will be joined by two newcomers. Bruce Langridge and Bruce Collett.

In the Women's section Glynn Kelly, who played in last year's team, will again be playing along with Frances Smith, who last year had the good fortune of playing for Lincoln while studying at Victoria.

All players chosen for the team are keen and have been practising hard and it is to be hoped that this year's team will equal or better last year's performance, although a lot will depend upon the composition of the other teams participating.
