EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black-and-white photograph, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (1921-2021), is seen in full focus as he takes a powerful swing at the cricket ball during a charity match at Arundel Castle. The year is 1953, and the Duke is leading the Dukes XV against the Duke of Norfolk's XV in support of the National Playing Fields Association (NPFA), of which Prince Philip was a passionate President. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, with the Duke dressed in the traditional cricket whites, complete with a crisp shirt, striped trousers, and a protective cap. His determined expression and focused stance convey the intensity of the game, as he connects with the ball and sends it soaring through the air. The backdrop of Arundel Castle adds an air of regal elegance to the scene, further emphasizing the unique blend of sport and royalty. The National Playing Fields Association was established in 1925 to protect and promote the provision of public playing fields in the United Kingdom. The organization's mission resonated deeply with Prince Philip, who recognized the importance of accessible recreational spaces for communities. Throughout his long tenure as President, he worked tirelessly to raise awareness and funds for the cause, using his influence and love for sports to make a difference. This photograph serves as a testament to Prince Philip's dedication to the National Playing Fields Association and his passion for cricket, as well as his commitment to using his position for the greater good. The image is a timeless reminder of the power of sport to bring people together and inspire positive change.
