Glenda Severn Rugby League Beauty Queen, adorned in her sash and crown, stands proudly on the balcony of the town hall alongside the triumphant Wakefield Trinity team. It is a moment of pure joy and celebration as fans gather below to honor their beloved team's victory over Hull in the Rugby League Cup Final on May 16th, 1960. The atmosphere is electric, with an air of excitement and unity filling the streets. The crowd erupts into cheers and applause, their faces beaming with happiness as they witness this historic moment. Glenda's infectious smile mirrors that of every fan present – a testament to the unifying power of sport. In this snapshot from the 1960s, we glimpse not only a victorious rugby league team but also a woman breaking barriers in traditionally male-dominated sports. Glenda embodies strength, beauty, and grace as she proudly represents both her team and herself as a queen. The gleaming trophy held by one member of Wakefield Trinity serves as a symbol of their hard-fought triumph. This image captures not just a sporting event but also an era defined by resilience and determination. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints' staff for future generations to admire, this print encapsulates an unforgettable moment where sport transcends boundaries and brings people together.
