Well Herbert; a pity you couldn’t find some kind words to say instead of picking out an Item.

How do we know they were ‘youths’, maybe just parents interested in finding out about the club.

I can only find good things to say about anyone trying to help youngsters these days,

Critics are welcome, if genuine critic is used,

Sorry if I sound harsh,these people are trying, and that in itself deserves praise.

Look closer at the photo & you will see that 2 of the ‘youths’ are holding offspring. I bet that was a pretty rare sight in the days of the old Capelles Youyth Club!

I agree Eric – I have fond memories of Les Camps Methodist Church youth club on Friday evenings.
I do hope this venture is a success.

Well I can only express my thoughts about young peoples clubs,

And those thoughts are good, with fond memories.

First club (hardly a club) but we walked from town to Cobo road just before the beach to a Mr Mace, he taught us boxing, with a pro boxer ‘winkle Perriam.
Then to Old Amherstians hall with Fred Damarell once again (Boxing)

Then later to St Stephens Boys club, Gymnastics first, then normal club table tennis and such.

The point I’m making is that these clubs are good, and I hope people contribute to keep it going.
Thank you for listening to a now old Dodger,
