Amateur Beauchamp Football Forms Goal Goalie Goalkeeper Honourable Lygon Malvern Match Player Signed Soccer Sportsman 1937


EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, The Hon. Richard Lygon, the esteemed son of Earl Beauchamp, is seen in goal during a football match between Worcester City and Malvern in the year 1937. The Hon. Lygon, an honorable young man of the gentry, defied societal expectations by embracing the working-class sport of football and even went as far as signing amateur forms to officially join the Worcester City team. The 1930s, a time when the world was on the brink of change, saw an increasing number of the aristocracy participating in sports as a means of escaping the monotony of their privileged lives. However, for Lygon, it seemed to be more than just a pastime. His intense focus and determination as he guards the goalpost are evident, revealing his passion for the game. As the crowd roars in anticipation, Lygon stands tall, his eyes fixed on the ball, ready to make a save. His impeccable attire, consisting of a crisp white jersey, black shorts, and goalkeeper gloves, contrasts sharply with the muddy pitch and the grit of the game. The photograph captures a moment of suspense, where the outcome of the match hangs in the balance. This image is a testament to Lygon's courage and love for the game, defying the norms of his time and embracing the spirit of sportsmanship. It serves as a reminder that no matter one's social standing, the thrill of competition and the joy of playing a sport can unite us all.
