Don Paterson, captain of the Grey Hawks attended the Grand Masters (over 60) Field Hockey World Cup in Hong Kong in September. He played for the Scottish National Team.
The exhausted Scottish National Team at half time in a match against Germany at the recent Grand Masters World Cup in Hong Kong. Don Paterson, captain of the Greyhawks and member of the Scottish squad, is seen with wet towel elegantly draped over his head talking to a team-mate. The temperature was 41 degrees and the humidity over 80 per cent. Shortly after this photo was taken, the Medical Officer for the tournament intervened and stopped play. The remainder of the game was played the next evening when the temperature was a more balmy 34 degrees. Scotland lost to Germany alas.
