EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the spirit of friendly competition and sportsmanship between the English and American netball teams at the Alhambra in 1900. Netball, a sport derived from basketball, was gaining popularity among ladies in both countries, and this image showcases two of the best teams of the time. The English team, dressed in white blouses and navy blue skirts, stands confidently with their netballs at the ready. Their American counterparts, clad in red and white, display equally determined expressions. The Alhambra, an iconic London venue known for its grand architecture and cultural events, served as the picturesque backdrop for this international showdown. The netballs and nets, positioned in the foreground, add a sense of focus and intensity to the scene. The rivalry between these teams was not just about winning; it represented the growing bond between the two nations through shared athletic pursuits. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of sports and the camaraderie that transcends borders.
