EDITORS COMMENTS
"This photograph captures the spirit and camaraderie of the Cheshire Rugby Team in the late 1890s. The team, consisting of Harvey, Fletcher, Bradshaw, Jones, Ingham, Fenton, Atkinson, Baxter, Cannell, Parratt, Jones, Houghton, Hughes, Chadwick, Hanson, and Clauss, is seen here proudly donning their striped rugby jerseys. The team's formation dates back to the late 1890s, making them one of the earliest recorded rugby teams in Cheshire. The image, taken during the 1895 or 1896 season, portrays the team in a casual setting, likely before or after a match. The players' focused expressions and confident poses exude a sense of determination and athleticism, reflecting the physical demands of the sport during this era. Rugby football, a popular sport during the late Victorian period, required a high level of fitness, strength, and strategic thinking. The team's diverse lineup showcases the inclusivity of the sport, with players of various ages, body types, and backgrounds coming together to form a cohesive unit. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of rugby in Cheshire and serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of the sport. It is a reminder of the passion and dedication that has driven generations of rugby players to take to the field and compete at the highest level." Mary Evans Picture Library's extensive collection offers a wealth of historical images, including this photograph of the Cheshire Rugby Team. The library's commitment to preserving and sharing these valuable historical records ensures that future generations can continue to learn from and be inspired by the past.
