most of mine are hockey, but i find yours fascinatinating. special the baor fantastic. would love to post my pic's if there is a intrest. it is such a collectable thing as they are rare and tell so much about canadian forces history of sports. mainly the love of hockey obviously.

Default Army Sports Badges

Whilst having a rummage at home I found these, which I believe are track-suit badges. Rather than start a new thread I hope no-one minds me linking with this existing one.

Regards, Stephen.

I just picked up a few hockey patches on ebay related to 1 Sig. Reg in the
1950's...... all part of our military heritage.

I would say inter-war but could well be earlier.
Very nice.
