Winner of the British Sociological Association Philip Abrams
Memorial Prize 2017 This book is a case study of an
African-Caribbean-founded football club, Meadebrook Cavaliers, from
the English East Midlands. Covering the years 1970 to 2010, it
seeks to address the paucity of research on the British
African-Caribbean male experience in leisure and sport as well as
on the relationship between "race" and local-level football. The
development of the club was intimately connected to wider changes
in the social and sporting terrain. Based on a mix of archival and
ethnographic research, the book examines the club's growth over
four decades, exploring the attitudes, social realities and
identity politics of its African-Caribbean membership and the
varying demands and expectations of the wider black community. In
doing so, it shows how studies of minority ethnic and local
football clubs can shed light on the changing social identities and
cultural dynamics of the communities that constitute them.
