EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Steve Cotterill, the manager of Bristol City Football Club, leads his team onto the pitch at Botswana National Stadium in Gaborone for a pre-season friendly match against Extension Gunners in July 2014. The image captures the intensity and focus of Cotterill as he prepares his squad for the upcoming challenge. The backdrop of the African stadium adds an exotic and adventurous feel to the scene, highlighting the unique experience of the team's tour to Botswana. The 2014 pre-season tour marked an important period for the Bristol City team as they geared up for the new season, which began in August. The team's participation in the Botswana Cup, where they faced Extension Gunners, provided an excellent opportunity to test their mettle against unfamiliar opposition and acclimatize to the conditions in Africa. Bristol City Football Club's visit to Botswana was not only about competition, but also about community engagement. The team's charitable arm, the Bristol City Community Trust, organized various activities in the local community, including coaching sessions and football clinics for children. The photograph encapsulates the spirit of sports diplomacy and the power of football to bring people together, transcending cultural and geographical boundaries. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer Dougie Allward, is a testament to the excitement and anticipation that surrounds the start of a new football season, as well as the broader impact of the beautiful game on communities around the world.
