For the 1920's:=> SPORTS
|
|
|
|
Sports in the 1920's in Canada centered on participation. Anyone
|
|
who had the skill could participate. Amateur sports such as hockey,
|
|
football, baseball, lacrosse, etc. flourished due to the influx of many
|
|
talented players. The twenties were Canada's golden age of sport. Many
|
|
sports, such as hockey, football, and baseball, were becoming all
|
|
professional. The sports heroes of the decade were amateurs. They often
|
|
came out of nowhere to capture the headlines, medals, and world records.
|
|
|
|
The greatest multi-sport hero of that age was Lionel Conacher. He
|
|
played hockey, football, baseball, and lacrosse. On the day of the 1921
|
|
Grey Cup, he played in the city baseball championship, and hit a triple in
|
|
the last inning to win it. Then he drove across town and scored 15 points
|
|
in the Grey Cup, as the Argos steamrolled to a 23-0 win over the Edmonton
|
|
Eskimos. In that game, he drove for 15 points, displaying incredible
|
|
kicking and running skill.
|
|
|
|
The 1920's also was the golden age of sport for women. The
|
|
world's greatest basketball team, the Edmonton Grads, were all women. The
|
|
Edmonton Grads were a team made up of players who were students or
|
|
graduated from McDougall High School in Edmonton. From 1915 to 1940, they
|
|
played 522 games and lost 20. The Grads represented Canada at 4
|
|
Olympics, and won every single one, including 27 Olympic basketball games
|
|
in a row. They were truly great. Even Dr. James Naismith, the inventor of
|
|
basketball, called the Grads "the greatest team that ever stepped out onto
|
|
the floor."
