Stranger than fiction! The Old Mid Whitgiftian Hockey Club was set up in 1957, as a club for the old boys of Trinity School, Croydon, formerly known as Whitgift Middle School. (Hence the curious name.) The Club is a part of the Old Mid Whitgiftian Association (OMWA), a sports and social association with clubs for hockey, cricket, rugby, water polo, squash and badminton and golf, as well as a very active amateur dramatic section, the Mitre Players. Forty nine years on, the Old Mids is an active club with five senior teams a mini section and an embryonic colts team, ("The Mitres".) In 1997, an Old Mids Mixed team won the National knock-out tournament, while in 1998 we won the Surrey Cup. In 2005 we won the Surrey Open League and were promoted back into the Surrey/Hants League. In the same year, we also won the Surrey Cup for the second time, and also the HA Trophy. |
