British Sports
The British love their sports. We are very proud of the fact that
Football, Cricket, Rugby and Tennis all originated in England. But
there is one problem: we´re not very good at any of these sports
anymore.
Football
The English football league started in the late 1800s, and
Sheffield United are the oldest football club in the world, having
formed in 1857. There´s estimated over 40,000 registered
football clubs in England, more than any other country. This
ranges from the Premier League to Sunday Pub Leagues.
There are 4 domestic club competitions in England. The League (with 4
professional Leagues: Premier League, Championship, League One, League
Two), the FA Cup, The League Cup and the Johnson´s Paint Trophy.

The League Cup includes teams from all 4 professional leagues, the Johnson
Paint Trophy is only the bottom two leagues, but the FA cup can include even
unprofessional teams!

So you get teams like Havant and Waterloo (Who?) playing Liverpool. The
magic of the FA cup!

Get stuck in!
In Spain, you applaud passing and goals. In England a tackle can get
just as loud a cheer.

Rugby
For some people, football is too technical. They watch Rugby
instead. The aim of the game…to hit your opponent very, very
hard. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gz0_An6RH5k
Although Rugby is very physical, it´s supported and
played by more upper class people than football. The fans
sit together, the players are very respectful and you´re
not even allowed to complain to the referee. They say
´Rugby is a thug´s game played by gentlemen and football
is a gentlemen´s game played by thugs.´
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-OhYAtK6to
Cricket
Cricket is one of the longest Sports in the world. Test Cricket
game last up to 5 days – even in the rain. This Sport is very
popular in Britain, but the best teams are Australia, India and
Pakistan.
Tennis
Tennis is Britain is a summer sport, with the popular Wimbledon.
During Wimbledon it´s popular to eat Strawberries and Cream
whilst watching, and often royalty and famous people go to
watch. British stars include Heather Watson, Laura Robson and
Andy Murray. The most famous British tennis player of recent
years in Tim Henman with Henman Hill near Wimbledon named
after him.
