About this collection

Sport was an integral part of office life for London-based employees of HSBC in the first half of the twentieth century. The men's teams were the main focus for many decades at the bank's New Beckenham sports ground. However, women's teams were established as their numbers on the staff books increased. Hockey and netball were two popular sports, and these images celebrate the players who represented HSBC in the 1950s.
