Lacrosse Team Canada

A photograph printed in the Yesterday newspaper section of the Bradford Witness. It shows Canada's national team in 1907. Bradford members on the team included V. Graham (top row, second from left), Dr. Lewis H. Campbell (top row, third from left) and Fred Coombs (front row, seated)."

The newspaper caption reads (note that the year and Dr. Campbell's first name are incorrect, see above for clarification): "Canada's recent Lacrosse world championship victory in England could mark a revival of our truly national sport. In Bradford Lacrosse was widely played early this century with the area producing several world-class competitors. This photo, submitted by Thomas Pratt of Islington, shows Canada's national team of 1915. Bradford members on the team include V. Graham, second from left, top row, Dr. Lou Campbell, third from left top row, and Fred Coombs, seated in front."
