EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the festive atmosphere of Boxing Day in 1949 at Collingham Bridge near Leeds. The image captures a lively game of cricket between local side Collingham & Linton C. C. , with two players, J. Lawrence and Bill Sutcliffe, taking to the field. The scene is filled with excitement as supporters and spectators gather around the pitch, eagerly watching every move. Men and women alike can be seen enjoying the match, their faces reflecting both concentration and delight. Some even have cups of tea in hand, perhaps savoring a momentary break from the action. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the spirit of community sports during that era - an occasion where neighbors came together to celebrate not only Christmas but also their shared love for cricket. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when people found joy in simple pleasures like playing or watching sports with friends and family. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we are reminded that while time may pass us by, certain traditions remain timeless. This festive game of cricket stands as a testament to our enduring passion for sport and camaraderie – an everlasting connection that transcends generations.
