EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white vintage print from The Northcliffe Collection, we are transported back to the year 1962. It captures a poignant moment as the Wakefield Trinity Rugby League club bids farewell at London Airport before embarking on an extraordinary journey to South Africa. The image exudes a sense of camaraderie and excitement as players, coaches, and staff gather together on the tarmac. Dressed in their iconic rugby attire, they proudly wave goodbye with beaming smiles on their faces. This snapshot freezes time just before they embark on what would undoubtedly be an unforgettable adventure. As one delves into the history behind this photograph, it becomes apparent that this trip was no ordinary excursion for the team. In an era when international travel was less common for sports teams, particularly in rugby league, this voyage held immense significance. The image not only encapsulates a pivotal moment for Wakefield Trinity but also serves as a testament to the spirit of sportsmanship and determination that defined these athletes during the 1970s. It is a reminder of how sport can transcend borders and bring people together across continents. This remarkable print from The Northcliffe Collection allows us to relive a bygone era in rugby league history – capturing both its timeless beauty and evocative power.
