The Cryptics in Malta

From the 1930s to the 1960s the Club toured Portugal; it then toured Paris and Berlin in the 1980s. These excellent European trips started again in 2002 with a visit to Sporting Alfas CC, an hour north of Alicante. Since then we have been back there 4 times and been to Menorca, Majorca, Corfu and Malta. Photos from some of these trips can be seen elsewhere in this gallery too. In 2022 the Club will visit Sporting Alfas again for a 20th Anniversary Tour. Here are some photos and other items
