EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing women undergraduates of Lady Margaret Hall actively participating in a hockey match back in 1920. At a time when women's rights and opportunities were still limited, this image serves as a powerful reminder of the progress made in the realm of education and sports.
The determination and passion exuded by these young women as they engage in competitive play is truly inspiring. Despite facing societal barriers and prejudices, they fearlessly pursued their love for sports and defied gender norms to showcase their skills on the field.
Lady Margaret Hall, known for its commitment to providing quality education to women, played an instrumental role in empowering these undergraduates to excel not only academically but also athletically. Through initiatives like this hockey match, these trailblazing students were able to break stereotypes and pave the way for future generations of female athletes.
As we look back at this snapshot from nearly a century ago, we are reminded of the resilience and strength displayed by those who fought for equal opportunities for women. This image stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of progress and empowerment that continues to shape our society today.
