EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "While the sports master is away fighting at the front, the sports mistress takes over refereeing duties of the boys rugby match" we are transported back to November 1943 during World War II. The image captures a powerful moment of resilience and determination on the home front. Amidst a time of turmoil and uncertainty, where men were called upon to serve their country in battle, it was not uncommon for women to step into traditionally male-dominated roles. Here, we witness an inspiring example as the sports mistress courageously steps up to referee a boys' rugby match in place of the absent sports master. The photograph showcases both childhood innocence and strength as schoolboys engage in an intense game of rugby. Their youthful energy and enthusiasm shine through despite living in challenging times. It serves as a reminder that even amidst war, life goes on, and children find solace in exercise and games. This nostalgic snapshot from Mirrorpix's collection evokes a sense of pride for those who lived through such trying times. It symbolizes how communities rallied together during World War II, with everyone doing their part to keep spirits high while supporting one another. As we gaze upon this poignant image from our past, let us remember all those who sacrificed so much for our freedom - both on the battlefield and on the home front.
