EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the spirit of camaraderie and friendly competition between officers and students during a hockey match at a college in Bedford, England, circa 1916. Amidst the backdrop of the First World War (WW1), physical education and sports continued to play an essential role in the lives of students and officers alike. The image showcases a group of officers in their military uniforms, standing proudly alongside students in their school blazers, all focused on the game unfolding before them. The Bedford Physical Education Society Archives (BPESA) preserves this historical photograph, offering a glimpse into the past when education and athletics intertwined. The hockey match served as a brief respite from the harsh realities of the war, allowing both parties to engage in a friendly contest and momentarily forget the turmoil of the outside world. The photograph is a testament to the enduring importance of physical education and the role it played in fostering unity and community, even during the most challenging times. As we reflect on the history of this bygone era, we are reminded of the power of sports to bring people together and create lasting memories.
