Sporting prowess and much else besides graces our Timeout pages today.

In this collection of undated photos found in a corner of our 1950s archive, champion swimmers are as proud as victorious hockey players and galloping stallions.

In one photograph a trim quartet of swimmers are celebrating their trophy win. What was the award for? Was this a relay team? Is one of them your father or friend?

Elsewhere on the page another trophy is being awarded, clearly to a member of the Brighton Tigers ice hockey team.

The image seems to have been flipped during our digitisation process but the emblem and the town name are still clearly legible.

The Brighton Tigers existed from 1935 until 1965 and were one of the country’s most successful sides during that period.

The club was at the Brighton Sports Stadium in West Street.

The Tigers were members of the English National League and later the British National League. The club had one of the country’s best supported teams with 4,000 spectators regularly attending matches which were held on a Thursday night.

The most famous victory was over the Soviet Union in December 1957, which the Tigers won 6–3. Is it possible that this photograph captures that iconic moment?

The team won their first British Championship since 1930 when they defeated the Nottingham Panthers in overtime in 1960.

After the collapse of the professional league in 1960, the Tigers continued to participate in the inter-rink tournaments that were established in the league’s place until 1965 when the Brighton Sports Stadium was closed down and demolished by the council.

In addition to sporting triumphs our photographers in the 1950s clearly had a chance to capture more risqué moments as well, as in this dressing room shot.

It is not exactly clear what journalistic purpose this image serves but obviously this young starlet was getting all dressed up for a show. Did you see it?
