  • Tennis in and Around Sheffield, 1874-1914
    Tennis in and Around Sheffield, 1874-1914 Andy Lusis Volume two of The History of the City of Sheffield, 1843-1993 includes a chapter on sport and recreation by Patrick Renshaw, which includes only two references to tennis. After informing us that it can be played in parks, he later tries to redeem himself with: “Finally, any writer on sport who failed to mention such local heroes as Roger Taylor, the tennis player who conquered mighty Rod Laver in his prime at Wimbledon in 1970, ... would deserve to be kicked into touch.” Anyone with an interest in tennis history might expect more of a writer with that surname, but he is only following a long tradition of local historians who have failed to appreciate the rich heritage of tennis in Sheffield. It is unlikely that the area around Sheffield has received better treatment. Before starting to redress the balance it is worth looking at the origins of lawn tennis and its arrival in Sheffield. Origins of lawn tennis What was the state of racket games in Britain in the 1870s? Real tennis (as we now call it, but simply called tennis then) was a game difficult to master, restricted to specially built courts mostly at exclusive clubs. Rackets (or racquets) was not much different. There were some expert players and women were very unlikely to take part. Squash rackets was little known at this time. Badminton, although devised earlier from the children’s game of battledore and shuttlecock (a kind of keepie uppie), and developed by army officers in India, was introduced to the public as a new game in 1873 for indoor and outdoor play, and seemed set to become a fashionable pastime.

Introduction Scottish professional football clubs have been facing and continue to face challenging financial circumstances due to a combination of factors including: changes in the economic structure of European football; increased concentration of media income amongst bigger leagues in larger countries; the Scottish economic context; and poor corporate governance in some clubs. These circumstances have had substantive negative consequences with many clubs running up unsustainable levels of debt, reduced squad sizes, falling attendance levels, cuts in players’ wages and in extreme cases administration or liquidation. Different clubs have adopted different solutions to these problems, some more radical than others. A number of clubs have sought new individual owners with deeper financial pockets to bail them out; some have restructured debt with their banks, which in practice has resulted in large debt write offs; while others have adopted new organisational forms such as Community Interest Companies to bring in new forms of finance and resources. Turning to the supporters was often seen as the last option for directors seeking to rescue a club. But the enthusiastic response of supporters in a number of clubs has led many involved in Scottish football now to view supporter involvement as a positive choice rather than considering supporters as ‘lenders of last resort’.
