EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the summer of 1969 in Nelson, Glamorgan, South Wales. The Handball Court, a historic landmark that has graced the town since 1860, stands proudly as the backdrop for this snapshot frozen in time. In this nostalgic scene from the past, we witness a group of men engrossed in an intense handball match. Their focused expressions and determined stances reveal their passion for this beloved sport. With each swing of their hands and every powerful strike against the three-walled court, they showcase both skill and athleticism. The atmosphere is filled with energy as spectators gather around to cheer on their favorite players. The echoes of laughter and friendly banter mingle with the sound of thudding balls against walls, creating a symphony unique to this sporting event. As we gaze upon this image captured by Western Mail Archive's lens on that memorable August day, it serves as a reminder of simpler times when communities found solace and camaraderie through shared activities like handball. It transports us back to an era where sports brought people together, fostering connections that transcended age or background. This print not only preserves a moment frozen in history but also encapsulates the spirit of Nelson's vibrant sporting culture during those transformative years of the 1960s.
