Club Competitions, Trophies & Shields
Honours Board
This Honours Board was introduced in 1965, with entries dating from 1953, and kept current until 1983 when it was full up. It was rediscoverd in 2010, restored and put back on display in the Clubhouse in 2011. The initial lettering, in 1965, was done by a Miss ILIFFE. It shows the Men's Singles and Pairs Champions for the period 1953 to 1983.
