EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the thrill and excitement of the Rumbelows Sprint Challenge 1st Semi Final, this vintage print takes us back to Wembley Stadium on Sunday, April 12th, 1992. The aim of this exhilarating challenge was to crown the fastest player in the League, a title that every club coveted. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see three determined athletes giving their all on the grassy field. No. 11 Kevin Bartlett from Notts County, No. 6 Leigh Jenkinson representing Hull City, and No. 1 Efan Ekoku proudly donning Bournemouth's colors are captured mid-race as they sprint towards victory. The rules were simple yet demanding - these players had to cover a grueling distance of 100 meters wearing football boots and full match kit. As they pushed their limits with each stride taken, adrenaline coursed through their veins while spectators held their breaths in anticipation. Ultimately it was John Williams of Swansea City who emerged triumphant from this fierce competition, claiming not only bragging rights but also a handsome prize of ten thousand pounds. Through Brendan Monks' lens, this remarkable photograph transports us back to an era when speed defined greatness on the football pitch. It serves as a testament to the dedication and athleticism displayed by these exceptional athletes during one unforgettable moment in sporting history.
