Lovely afternoon spent with Jennifer Braham’s daughter Angela and partner Matt reviewing her late mother’s archive, all beautifully and carefully preserved at The Hockey Museum for posterity. Jennifer was an 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 international who represented 🇬🇧 in its first ever women’s matches during a tour of the USA in 1965!

FIH branded fabric - does anyone remember it?
Evlyn Raistrick, former Scottish Hockey and International Hockey Federation (FIH) umpire and official found these two tops in her wardrobe. She remembers that sometime in the early 1990s her mother used the fabric to make these two very unusual tops, but she has no memory of how she got the material or if she wore them at a specific hockey event. Is it an official FIH fabric? Can anyone shed any light on its origins?
