Congratulations to Australian Mens Hockey Team on Victory in Sixth World Hockey Cup Final

 20 October  1986

I have sent today the following message to Alan Berry, Manager of the Australian Mens Hockey Team, in London:

Please pass on congratulations to coach Richard Aggiss, captain David Bell and other members of the team on a brilliant victory in the Sixth World Hockey Cup Final. Australia's consistent excellent performances on the international hockey field over many years have been justifiably rewarded with this major trophy.

Please also pass on compliments to my colleague, Ric Charlesworth, on his outstanding performance in being voted ' Man of the Series'.
