EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of a bygone era in Australian sports history, as the sun sets on the Benalla Cricket Oval during the Benalla versus Collingwood match on Easter Monday, 1909. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when community spirit was at the heart of sporting events. The scene is set with the lush, green expanse of the cricket oval stretching out before us, dotted with spectators dressed in their Sunday best, eagerly watching the game unfold. The players, dressed in their cricket whites, are intensely focused on the match, their determined expressions a testament to the passion and dedication they bring to the game. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the social fabric of the time, with families and friends gathered together, picnicking on the grass, enjoying the day out. The presence of a horse and cart in the background adds to the sense of nostalgia, reminding us of the simpler times when travel was slower and life moved at a more leisurely pace. The Benalla versus Collingwood match was a much-anticipated event in the Australian cricket calendar, with both teams boasting strong reputations and loyal fan bases. The fact that the match was played on Easter Monday, a public holiday, would have only added to the excitement and attendance. This photograph is a precious reminder of the rich history of cricket in Australia and the important role it played in bringing communities together. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of the game and the memories it creates for generations to come.
