Java Trip of Combined Services (Singapore) 1931


The Singapore army side Combined Services played 6 matches in Soerabaja and nearby Malang as part of the 30 year jubilee festivities of T.H.O.R., which had also invited a touring side from Australia, to play 6 matches at the same occasion. This included one match in which the two touring sides met.
Most of the players came from the 28th Gloucestershire Regiment, which would return to the Dutch East Indies for a trip to Medan (Sumatra) after a short visit home to play the domestic cup final.
