    One Summer Sports Tradition Refuses to Play Gender Games

    Leftists believe that the answer to so many problems is to simply rename things, which is a time of name nonsense. Get the “ball guys” and “ball women” at tennis tournaments, for instance. Those terms are passé because they’re gender- specific, which we all know just wo n’t do in our enlightened world.

    The Asian Open and French Open no longer refer to their game kids and game women as “ball kids,” which is a ridiculous term. The U. S. Open refers to its ball boys and ball girls as the “ball crew”, which is n’t quite as bad.

    Granted, these boys and girls are generally teenagers, but they go through rigorous training to get balls from the tennis courts and then avoid getting in the way. At this year’s approaching Wimbledon tournament, the ball boys and basketball girls make no exceptions.

    The Daily Mail reports that” Wimbledon prides itself on having game lads, which it perceives to be the best in the industry, first introduced in 1920.” They go the extra mile to make sure everything goes smoothly and that their tasks are no difficult. In the past, they have been berated by people, hit in the head by free hits from the likes of Roger Federer, and fainted in the heat”.

    The All England Club, which hosts Wimbledon, has even chosen to stick to game kids and game women instead of playing gender-neutral activities. It’s par for the course at a game that takes pride in having a long-standing history, pardon the combined activity language.

    The All England Club’s monthly balancing act, which modernizes while upholding some of the cultures it holds so dearly, is the phrase for this year’s Wimbledon, says Simon Cambers at The Guardian. ” Some things stay the same while the team and the game are expanding constantly, and the proposed growth on the grounds of the old golf club across the street is anticipated to be approved later this summer, but some things do.”

    Although the membership and the game have adapted to the times, England and Wimbledon have been slower to accept change. All England has updated its amenities, including adding roof to the two judges where the action takes place.

    But, Wimbledon’s biggest cultural shifts have stemmed from censure. There is no crystal roof, Venus Williams wrote in 2007 to communicate to women and girls all over the world. My concern is that Wimbledon is evidently sending the wrong message when it started giving its men’s and ladies ‘ leaders equal reward money.

    A New York Times piece criticizing Wimbledon’s use of” Mr.”,” Miss”, and” Mrs”. before All England’s name was prompted to end the practice by competition. It’s unfortunate because I always believed it would give Wimbledon a sense of course.

    Thankfully, Wimbledon is n’t changing its language to mollify the gender authorities, at least for now. Similar to the rule that competitors must wear “almost completely white” clothing at the tournament, although Wimbledon did start allowing women to wear colored underwear starting last year.

    In some ways, it’s unhappy when tradition is perceived as refreshing, but Wimbledon’s continued commitment to tradition may give us hope that not everyone is caving in. And by doing so, it makes Wimbledon that much more specific.
