CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF SPORTS KIT
Footballs
After use, dry naturally (not near fire) and grease with dubbin.
Water polo balls should be greased the same way.
Football Boots
Should be well dubbined before use. To prevent mud adhering
apply coat of blacklead to uppers and soles after removing dubbin.
After use on wet day dry naturally in air but never before a fire.
Hockey Sticks
These require little, if any, oiling. In any case, only a smear
of raw linseed oil is necessary, but it is useful in cleaning off the
head when dirty after play.
Hockey Balls
When wet after use, dry in the air and, if necessary, give a coat
of enamel.
