poliphiloMore glum Edwardians.
This is the Sanderstead Ladies Hockey Club First XI, 1908-9. Enid is second from the right on the back row. Her sister Elfrida (Elf) is sitting on the ground to the left.
Elf was a star player, described in the report of a match between Kent and Surrey as "hitting hard and true". Enid is commended in the same report for "her telescopic reach".

He last companion, Doro, was a jolly sort, whereas Enid was rather grand and ladylike.
