EDITORS COMMENTS
Blackpool and England footballer Alan Ball, part of the 1966 England squad, is captured in this nostalgic print taken on 1st May 1966. The image showcases a young Ball standing proudly in the street where his parents reside in Walkden, Lancashire. Dressed casually in typical 1960s attire, with hands nonchalantly tucked into his pockets, he exudes an air of confidence and determination. As one of the key players representing both Blackpool and England during that era, Ball's passion for football shines through effortlessly. His commitment to the sport is evident as he stands amidst a backdrop of ordinary suburban life - a reminder that even sporting heroes have humble beginnings. This snapshot encapsulates not only Ball's personal journey but also serves as a window into English football history. The scene captures the essence of a bygone era when children played freely on streets without any digital distractions. It evokes memories of simpler times when dreams were nurtured within local communities. Alan Steele skillfully immortalizes this significant moment from our past through his expert lens. This print transports us back to an iconic period in sports history while celebrating the achievements and dedication of one remarkable player.
