EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense rivalry between England and Scotland in a ladies hockey match at Merton. The English team stands tall, exuding confidence and determination as they prepare to take on their Scottish counterparts. From left to right, we see the formidable Miss D G Northwood, Miss V Chamberlain, Miss M Pollard, Miss E N Arnold, Misss Newell, and Miss D N Glenday. Each player radiates strength and skill that is sure to give their opponents a tough challenge. Seated in front are the equally impressive members of the English team - Miss P Scarlett, Mrs Bridge, Miss E Willcock (Capt), Miss K Doman, and Miss M Bryant. Their focused expressions reveal their commitment to leading their team towards victory. The date etched below reminds us that this historic moment took place on 16th March 1921 when women's sports were still fighting for recognition. This image serves as a testament to the dedication of these sportswomen who defied societal norms by participating in competitive sports during an era when it was not widely accepted. Alfieri's monochrome photography style adds depth and nostalgia to this snapshot from the past. It allows us to appreciate both the physicality of the game itself as well as admire these pioneering athletes who paved the way for future generations of female athletes.
