EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the historic day one of Wimbledon 1977, where a significant change was witnessed in the world of tennis. For the very first time, "Balls Girls" were introduced at this prestigious tournament, forever altering its dynamics. In this particular snapshot captured by Mirrorpix on June 20th, 1977, we witness a ball girl springing into action during an intense match on one of Wimbledon's smaller outside courts. While it remains uncertain which specific match is depicted here due to limited information provided, what truly stands out is the sheer determination and agility exhibited by this young lady. Dressed in a classic pleated skirt and armed with a tennis ball ready for play, she epitomizes grace under pressure. The image not only transports us back to the vibrant atmosphere of Wimbledon in the 1970s but also serves as a reminder of how traditions evolve over time. The inclusion of ball girls marked another step towards gender equality within sports and showcased their indispensable role in facilitating smooth gameplay. As we admire this remarkable photograph from Memory Lane Prints, let us celebrate these unsung heroes who have played an integral part in shaping the legacy of Wimbledon and countless other tennis tournaments worldwide.
