EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Sam Baldock of Bristol City Football Club proudly lifts the Friendship Cup aloft following his team's hard-fought victory against Extension Gunners in Botswana during their pre-season tour in July 2014. The image, captured by renowned sports photographer Dougie Allward of JMP, depicts a moment of pure jubilation as the excitement of the win resonates in the faces of the players and the supporters behind them. The setting is Botswana National Stadium in Gaborone, where the two teams squared off in a friendly match during the 14-15 season. The Friendship Cup, a commemorative trophy symbolizing the spirit of sportsmanship and international camaraderie, adds an extra layer of significance to this encounter. Bristol City, then managed by Steve Cotterill, embarked on a pre-season tour of Botswana to test their mettle against unfamiliar opposition and acclimate to the African climate. The team's successful outing against Extension Gunners was a morale-boosting experience that set the tone for the upcoming season. Bristol City Community Trust, the charitable arm of the club, was also present in Botswana to engage in community outreach activities, further emphasizing the club's commitment to making a positive impact both on and off the pitch. This photograph encapsulates the essence of a pre-season tour: the thrill of competition, the camaraderie among teammates, and the opportunity to explore new horizons. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of sports to bring people together, transcending borders and fostering unity.
