It's University College, London. I'd guess Hockey.

I've never really heard of a Hurling team at UCL. I don't think it's a sport that would be so popular over in England, as it is.

No, it's University College London Hockey Club. Hockey as in field hockey. We still have the same crest on our playing kits today. Where did you find that jacket? It's an incredible piece of history.
