The Eton Fives Association


    Possible Courts in England


      • Bloxham School, Bloxham, Oxfordshire
        1 court, but possibly a Rugby Fives Court? Still in use in 1964

      • Cottesmore School, Crawley, Surrey
        1 court. Used as a coal bunker in 1980. Still in existence.

      • Chesterfield Grammar School, Chesterfield
        2 courts. Still in use in the 70s. The two courts at the school were converted to storage sheds in 1977 when the school hosted the National Schools Athletics Finals. Shame because I spent many a break and lunch time playing (though one had to wait for the prefects to finish first, or get there before them - anon).

      • Guildford School,
        2 Courts - email from Stephen Knott June 2006 "Under "Possible Courts in England", you list "Guildford School". I attended the Royal Grammar School Guildford from 1957 to 1964 and there were certainly two fives courts then - they were very popular at the time but I do not know whether they are there now or whether they were for Eton Fives. I suspect not because there are certain features of the Eton Fives courts that I do not recall being present. Singles and doubles were played."

      • Hampton Grammar School, Hampton
        1 court. Non-standard. Not in use.

      • Hardwick Estate, Goring Heath, Berkshire
        1 court. Standing in 1978 - possibly no longer in existence.

      • Hartlebury, Midlands
        1 court open. Buttress wrong dimensions. Still in existence?

      • St.James's C of E Middle School, Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk
        1 court. Possibly no longer in existence.

      • Sherborne School, Dorset
        5 Rugby Fives courts in existence 2002 Originally 1 Eton court?
