Beechgrove Tennis Club, Moffat: A Snapshot of Tennis History in Early 20th Century Scotland This photograph, taken circa 1911, transports us back in time to Beechgrove Tennis Club in the picturesque town of Moffat, Scotland. The image showcases a lively tennis match unfolding on the green grass court, with players fully engrossed in their game. The South Scotland Tennis Championships were held at this esteemed club, making it a significant venue for competitive tennis in the region. The serene setting of the club is further accentuated by the nearby Moffat Hydro, a popular hydroelectric power station that provided electricity to the town. The combination of the beautiful tennis court, the tranquil hydro, and the idyllic surroundings makes for a perfect blend of sport and nature. The tennis players, both men and women, are dressed in fashionable tennis outfits of the era. The women wear long-sleeved blouses and pleated skirts, while the men sport collared shirts and knickers. The children, too, can be seen watching the match from the bench, their curious eyes reflecting their fascination with the game. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of tennis in Scotland during the 1910s. The net, the court, and the players' outfits all serve as reminders of a bygone era, inviting us to appreciate the enduring appeal of this classic sport. As we admire the image, we can almost hear the sound of the ball bouncing on the court and feel the excitement in the air as the players strive for victory.
