The Club received an interesting email query about Crawley Harriers:

"My husband is currently in the process of researching our family tree. I have a cup presented by Crawley Harriers to my Grandfather B King (Ben King) with a date inscribed of 28 April 1909."

 

Crawley Harriers Cup 1909

 

The Trophy indicates that there was a Crawley Harriers athletics club in the town Crawley Harriers formed August 1937. 

 

In fact the South of the Thames Cross-County Association handbook shows that in 1911 J Brewer, Crawley Harriers came second in the "Junior" Race.
