Hi Mccrorj2512

Perhaps a clearer image of the pocket detail would be helpful

A surprising number of sporting bodies, and service personel, were using the silver fern on blazers etc by the 1920's.

There's a photo of the 1928 NZ bowls team

They are wearing an assortment of blazers but the badge is not a fern leaf.

I don't think there were NZ national teams for squash or badminton as early as 1920.

Have attempted to zoom in x4 on the blazer pocket.

It appears to show a silver fern leaf across the outline of a shield.

Is the tie of any significance?

The cricketers weren't wearing any whilst some of the bowls team were.

The video guy looks like the one in the photo you posted but the other photos don't look like him. Maybe another manager?

I am wondering whether there is more in the background of the photograph.
If so, it may be helpful to see the entire picture please.

PS, As stated the jacket has certainly seen better days.
