EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back to a sunny day in July 1981, where the Lostwithiel adult and children's football teams proudly gather for a group portrait. The end of the 1980/1981 season marked their achievements in various competitions throughout Cornwall, and this momentous occasion is immortalized by photographer Jonathan Barker. The image showcases an array of gleaming trophies adorning the foreground, symbolizing the hard-fought victories these dedicated athletes had secured. Each shield represents triumphs earned on pitches across the county, testament to their skill, teamwork, and unwavering determination. These coveted prizes serve as tangible reminders of their accomplishments within Cornish football. Dressed in vibrant football kits that reflect their team spirit and passion for the sport, both adults and children beam with pride as they stand shoulder to shoulder. Their faces radiate joy and satisfaction after months of training sessions, grueling matches, and unforgettable moments shared on fields scattered throughout Lostwithiel. Beyond being a mere photograph capturing sportsmanship at its finest, this snapshot encapsulates camaraderie among teammates who have become family through countless hours spent together pursuing victory. It embodies not only athletic prowess but also community unity—a reminder that sports can bring people together regardless of age or background. Jonathan Barker's lens has perfectly captured this slice of sporting history; it serves as a timeless tribute to those involved while inspiring future generations to pursue their own dreams on Cornish playing fields.
