EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum showcases an unidentified soccer team in Cornwall, dating back to around 1900. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia, transporting us to a bygone era when the sport was still in its early stages. The players stand proudly in their traditional Victorian attire, donning long-sleeved shirts and knee-length shorts, with each member wearing a distinct cap that adds character to the ensemble. The focus of this photograph is undoubtedly on the game itself; however, it also offers glimpses into Cornish life at the time. The backdrop reveals an idyllic countryside scene, evoking images of rolling hills and picturesque landscapes that were characteristic of this region. It's fascinating how even though these individuals remain unknown to us today, their passion for soccer unites them across time. Speculated to have been taken at Truro College Football Club by an anonymous photographer, this image captures not only the essence of early football but also provides valuable insight into local sporting history. As we admire their sturdy boots and classic leather ball - symbols of dedication and camaraderie - we are reminded that sports have always played a vital role in communities worldwide. Displayed here purely for educational purposes and not intended for commercial use, this print serves as a testament to our shared heritage while honoring those who paved the way for modern-day football enthusiasts in Cornwall.
