Like the club groups, the different styles and poses through the ages can be seen in these pictures of club winning teams and groups – tracksuits vary as the ages go by. Millington’s finest via Admiral’s money makers to the modern synthetic fabrics that never saw a sheep’s back or a cotton bud. From neatly dressed for the sports day through 60’s and 70’s hippiedom to today’s neat, usually, hair styles, from formal posing to informal standing around, There are a range of clubs here from Aberdeen to West Kilbride in alphabetical order – more photographs of winning, placed or just teams always welcome.
