Some operators have only opened their bookings in April. You may go to: www.discovershepparton.com.au or call the Tourism Office on 1800 808839 Good Bye, Nev Langford - rest in peace... ev’s early primary education was completed at the Wilston State School where he excelled at both tennis and cricket. Representing his school in the Metropolitan Tennis Finals in both 1945 & 1946 and winning both. Nev was also the school’s N opening batsman and a recognised slow bowler. In his last game for the school he scored 79 in the first innings, 76 in the second and took 6/29 with the ball. However, after being hit in the face and having his glasses broken, his cricket playing days came to an end. An early turning point in his tennis playing career came in 1945 when the Army which had occupied Milton during the war returned the area to QLTA. To re-open the tennis centre, the QLTA organised a series of exhibition matches between the leading Davis Cup players of the day, and Queensland’s top amateur and junior players – this included one Neville Langford. In 1950 Neville was employed by Slazenger’s as an ‘Inwards Clerk’ and at night he did promotional film shows for both tennis and his other passion, golf. Being the first to use the 16mm Bell Howell projector, he later used it to show such events as the 1953 Davis Cup at the Brisbane City Hall. In that same year he partnered Neale Fraser to win the Australian Hardcourt Doubles Championships against Mal Anderson and Roy Emerson. In the singles of the Championships he had a four set victory over Adrian Quist who at that time was the number one ranked player. By 1953 he was ranked the number one tennis player in Queensland. Throughout the 60’s and 70s he worked for Slazenger’s, improving his game and in 1980, he left Slazengers and bought the Northgate Tennis Centre. He started one of his great loves again coaching, at both the centre and also at St. Margaret’s, Nev continued his coaching at the centre which was sold in 1996 and at St Margaret’s until 1997.

  • The Portrayal of Black Female Athletes in Children's Picturebooks
    Strides Toward Equality: The Portrayal of Black Female Athletes in Children’s Picturebooks Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Rebekah May Bruce, M.A. Graduate Program in Education: Teaching and Learning The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee: Michelle Ann Abate, Advisor Patricia Enciso Ruth Lowery Alia Dietsch Copyright by Rebekah May Bruce 2018 Abstract This dissertation examines nine narrative non-fiction picturebooks about Black American female athletes. Contextualized within the history of children’s literature and American sport as inequitable institutions, this project highlights texts that provide insights into the past and present dominant cultural perceptions of Black female athletes. I begin by discussing an eighteen-month ethnographic study conducted with racially minoritized middle school girls where participants analyzed picturebooks about Black female athletes. This chapter recognizes Black girls as readers and intellectuals, as well as highlights how this project serves as an example of a white scholar conducting crossover scholarship. Throughout the remaining chapters, I rely on cultural studies, critical race theory, visual theory, Black feminist theory, and Marxist theory to provide critical textual and visual analysis of the focal picturebooks. Applying these methodologies, I analyze the authors and illustrators’ representations of gender, race, and class. Chapter Two discusses the ways in which the portrayals of track star Wilma Rudolph in Wilma Unlimited and The Quickest Kid in Clarksville demonstrate shifting cultural understandings of Black female athletes. Chapter Three argues that Nothing but Trouble and Playing to Win draw on stereotypes of Black Americans as “deviant” in order to construe tennis player Althea Gibson as a “wild child.” Chapter Four discusses the role of family support in the representations of Alice Coachman in Queen of the Track and Touch the Sky.
