Their ties neatly fastened and hockey sticks firmly grasped reflect their commitment to both style and skill. With every detail meticulously captured, this snapshot immortalizes not only the players but also the essence of early women's sports in Cornwall. The whistle held tightly by one of the team members symbolizes authority and fair play—a testament to their dedication to upholding sporting values even amidst societal challenges faced by women at that time.
