Random information on the term “Ball girl?”:
In the United States, a water boy or water girl (sometimes spelled waterboy or watergirl) was someone who worked in the field, providing water to farm workers in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, the name is given to those who work on the sidelines at sports events to provide water for athletes. The phrase has also been used to describe diminutive figures who serve another team or person in the business and political worlds, in a slightly derogatory manner (ex. “Bill is the CEO’s water boy”).
The position has a long history in athletics. In the 1869 New Jersey vs. Rutgers football game, one of the earliest American football games, an unnamed water boy is documented giving aid to a Rutgers player.
Among notable people who served as water boys is President Herbert Hoover, who was the Stanford Cardinal football’s first water boy.
Although the term in modern American usage is now associated with sports, traditionally a water boy was a boy employed in farming or industry to provide water for farm workers or machinery. On cotton plantations, just as in modern manual harvesting or picking, the water carrier was in constant demand. This is documented in the folk song “Waterboy”, “Water boy, where are you hidin’?”, which is only the best known of many folk and plantation water-call songs.
