EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the spirited camaraderie of The Orient Ladies Football Club, a formidable team hailing from South East England. Known for their impressive goal-scoring prowess, this season alone they have netted an astounding 60 goals in both league matches and friendly games. Every Sunday, these talented women take to the field with unwavering determination as they compete for the coveted Womens Football Association Cup. After an intense training session, we see a delightful twist in this snapshot - the ladies invading the sacred territory of a local football club's men's bath. With infectious smiles adorning their faces, they relish every minute of this unexpected escapade. Amongst them are Brenda Norrington, Susan Knightly, Ann Williams, Leslie Pugh, Helen Cross, Lorraine Anderson, Marilyn Green, Janet Everett, Vicky Wilson; all led by their fearless captain Chris Buck. Notably standing at the center is Vanessa Grimsdell - a true force to be reckoned with on the pitch and currently holding the title of top goalscorer. Transporting us back to March 14th in 1972 during an era defined by its distinctive fashion and cultural shifts; this photograph encapsulates not only sporting excellence but also celebrates female empowerment within traditionally male-dominated spaces. Ron Burton's lens immortalizes these trailblazing women who shattered stereotypes while leaving an indelible mark on British football history.
