Meet the Mascots
The Club Mascots are more than just toys - they are our identity and are used to associate and promote the Old Crocs. But just to make it interesting we try to develop their lifestyles with stories of their exploits. As the Club grows so do the numbers and diversity of our Mascots - here are a few to start with: ( constantly under development ):

Junior Poor Junior, left all alone in the big world he sat forlornly on the table at the village boot sale. A single shiny twenty pence piece was all that was needed to save him from a ride in that big smelly dustcart to the local tip where he would spend the rest of his days amongst all the rubbish that those wasteful humans wouldn't recycle. But wait - someone had shown some interest in him. "Oh please pick me up" he tried to shout. Yes ! Yes ! The big hand came down and gently lifted him up. " Don't tip me up like that" he tried to say as the man examined him from every angle. Junior knew that the man could see his scruffy clothes, big belly and his crossed eyes.. "oh please don't put me down". But the kindly old man recognised a kindred spirit - ( he too had a big belly and crossed eyes). " Don't worry Son" the big man said - "you're coming home with us". And so Junior began his new life with Uncle Phillip and Auntie Geraldine. Junior really enjoyed his first holiday abroad - Uncle Phillip taught him lots of new words to say for when you fall over and Auntie Geraldine fussed over him all day which really gave Uncle Phillip a lot of peace. To save his little feet Uncle Phillip carried him everywhere in his trouser pocket. Auntie Geraldine didn't know he was there and kept smiling at Uncle Phillip a lot. Junior couldn't get the hang of Crazy Golf but he enjoyed Bungy Jumping off the dashboard whilst Uncle Phillip screeched around the lanes. p.s Sadly, Junior went "walkabout" in 2004 and hasn't been
