EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the George Garland Collection, held in the West Sussex Record Collection, takes us back to a chilly autumn day on October 20th, 1934. It showcases the proud members of Petworth Hockey Club, standing tall and united as a team. In this historic snapshot, we see a group of determined men wearing their traditional hockey kit - shorts and jerseys adorned with the club's emblem. Each player holds his trusty hockey stick with pride, ready for action on the field. The manager stands at the center of it all, exuding authority and guidance. The backdrop reveals an old-fashioned netting that frames a well-maintained goalpost – evidence of countless hours spent perfecting their skills during training sessions. One can only imagine the exhilaration felt by these athletes as they aimed to score goals against formidable opponents. Beyond being just another sports photograph, this image encapsulates camaraderie and passion for hockey within Petworth's community during those times. It serves as a testament to how sports bring people together across generations. Preserved meticulously by West Sussex County Council's archives department, this remarkable piece offers us an invaluable glimpse into local history while honoring Petworth Hockey Club's legacy. Let it remind us that even in our modern era of high-tech equipment and advanced techniques, true sportsmanship remains timeless – forever etched in moments like these captured nearly nine decades ago.
