EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, members of the Metropolitan Police Association Football Team (MPA) are seen boarding a KLM Fokker plane at Croydon Airport in 1937, ready to embark on a historic tour of the Netherlands. The team, dressed in their smart police uniforms, are filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation as they prepare to take off for Amsterdam. The visit was arranged following an invitation from the Dutch Police Association to take part in their Jubilee celebrations. The main purpose of the trip was to play two football matches against the Dutch police at Amsterdam and Doetichem. This was a significant moment in the history of both associations, as it marked the first time that the two teams had competed against each other. The Fokker plane, a four-engine behemoth of the sky, looms large in the background, its propellers spinning rapidly as it waits to take off. The team members, some of whom are seen smiling and waving to the camera, seem small in comparison to the mighty aircraft. The photograph captures the spirit of camaraderie and sportsmanship that existed between the two police forces at the time. It also offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of police football teams and their tours during the 1930s. As the team boards the plane, they are no doubt thinking about the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in the Netherlands. With their uniforms neatly pressed and their spirits high, they are ready to represent their city and their country on the international stage. This photograph is a reminder of the rich history of police football teams and their tours, and the enduring bonds that have been forged through sport and friendship. It is a testament to the power of sport to bring people together, regardless of nationality or background.
