Monty Moss: An Obituary

May 2014: Monty Moss, who has died at the age of 90, had a vast influence over fives at Harrow, where he was captain in 1942; for many years he was chairman and then president of the Old Harrovian Fives Club.

James Leonard: An Obituary

Jan 2016: James Leonard was a remarkably gifted man, both intellectually and athletically. He was undoubtedly one of the best Eton Fives players never to have won the Kinnaird Cup, if only because of his limited availability due to other commitments.

Peter Knowles

Jan 2014: It is with great sadness that we report the death last week of Peter Knowles. Peter was one of the great servants of the game, as a player then as a coach, especially at Highgate School. He ran the the National Schools' Championships, was the EFA's archivist, secretary of the Eton Fives Charitable Trust and co-author of "A History of Eton Fives". A full obituary appears below:

Jimmy Biggs - A Tribute

Roddy Forman: An Obituary

Jan 2014: Roddy Forman was master in charge of Fives at Eton for several years and, in retirement, was an ardent coach at Summer Fields, Oxford. He was the ideal person to instil in young players the ethos of the game and was no mean performer himself.

Jan 2014: Lord Kingsdown - A Tribute

Gordon Stringer writes:

Lord Kingsdown, KG, PC (1927 – 2013)

It is with a great sense of loss that we record the death of Robin Leigh-Pemberton, Lord Kingsdown, who had been Patron of the EFA since 1997. He followed another distinguished Old Etonian, Sir Alec Douglas-Home, and filled the role with equal aplomb.
