This print showcases the Royal Sussex Regiment Hockey Team in March 1938. The team, composed of brave soldiers, stands proudly on a frost-covered field, ready to conquer the challenges that lie ahead. Despite the winter chill, their determination radiates through their eyes and sturdy stance. The pitch is meticulously prepared with its neatly marked lines leading towards an imposing goal at the far end. Each member of this formidable team holds a hockey stick firmly in hand, symbolizing their unity and shared passion for this exhilarating sport. Adorned in their military attire, these men are not only warriors on the battlefield but also skilled athletes on the ice. Their commitment to excellence is evident as they wear shin pads for protection against potential injuries during intense gameplay. This snapshot from the 1930s captures a moment frozen in time when camaraderie and sportsmanship thrived amidst challenging circumstances. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection, this remarkable image serves as a testament to both history and athleticism.
