EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a unique pastime enjoyed by members of the legendary Arsenal Football Club during their training at the Dyke Golf Club in Brighton. The year was 1935, and four prominent figures from the club can be seen engrossed in a game of darts. From left to right, we have Bob John, Wilf Copping, Ray Bowden (who seems to be meticulously keeping score), and Jack Crayston standing confidently at the dartboard. Their focused expressions reveal their competitive spirit as they take a break from football training to engage in this leisurely activity. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this snapshot from football history. It transports us back to a time when darts served as both entertainment and relaxation for these talented athletes. As members of one of England's most renowned football clubs, these men were not only skilled on the pitch but also displayed camaraderie off it. This photograph is a testament to the multifaceted nature of sportsmanship – where moments like these fostered friendships among teammates while honing their precision skills outside traditional football drills. Alfieri's expert eye captured this timeless image that showcases not only Arsenal's legacy but also highlights how even professional athletes find joy in simple games amidst their rigorous training routines.
