EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to March 1938, capturing the spirit of the Wick Football Team in all its glory. The George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office has preserved this remarkable piece of history, allowing us a glimpse into rural soccer during the 1930s. The image showcases a group of determined footballers proudly donning their striped kit as they pose on a picturesque field. In the background, we catch sight of a charming public house and an old bus, reminding us that this sport was not only about competition but also about community and camaraderie. The stout manager stands tall amongst his team, exuding authority and passion for the game. With goalposts looming behind them, one can almost feel the anticipation in the air before an exhilarating match begins. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from yesteryears, it becomes evident that football held great significance even in rural areas like Wick. It brought people together from all walks of life to share their love for sport and enjoy some well-deserved pints after a hard-fought battle on the field. Thanks to West Sussex County Council's commitment to preserving local history, we are able to appreciate these glimpses into our past. This print serves as a testament to how sports have always played an integral role in shaping communities across time and space.
