ABSTRACT

The development of lawn tennis has often been associated with London and, with other racquet sports, been seen as dominated by elites and social tradition. This is challenged in some recent scholarship, which points to variations of support across time and place. Using club records, press reports and testimony from players, officials and members, it is argued here that lawn tennis in the West Midlands was both a more significant and somewhat less elite sport than the orthodox view allows.

摘要

草地网球的发展常常与伦敦联系在一起,并且与其他球拍运动一样,被视为由精英和社会传统主导。这在最近的一些学术研究中受到挑战,它指出了不同时间和地点的支持差异。使用俱乐部记录、新闻报道和球员、官员和成员的证词,这里认为西米德兰兹郡的草地网球既是一项比正统观点所允许的更重要但又不那么精英的运动。
