Abstract
Presented at the North American Society for the Sociology of Sport (NASSS) Conference in Virginia Beach, VA (November, 2019).

Lake examines various narratives of how tennis featured in the Great War: as a lens to view British responses to the war, a reflection of amateur ideals,
and as a platform to both condemn and support the playing of recreational sport during war time.
