Photographs of the game Sticke being played
Sticke - the evolution of a new game from lawn tennis and squash rackets. The game of Sticke is a sort of combination of lawn tennis and squash rackets, being played over a lawn-tennis net on a hard court with back and side walls. Light lawn-tennis rackets and a small black-covered ball, on the lines of a lawn-tennis ball, are used. The service must go above the tape shown in numbers 1 and 4, and the scoring is by single points up to fifteen. The game is played at several garrison towns, but the court here illustrated is a private one in Esher
