A National Passion

• Sports play a more important part in people’s lives in Britain than it does in most other countries.

• The British are only rarely the best in the world at particular sports in modern times. However, they are one in the world in much larger number of different sports than any other country.

The Social Importance of Sports

• In British if anyone want to joint or participation in sport they must have a legal recognition. That is a duty of every local authority to provide and maintain playing fields and other facilities, and usually their using that with cheap and sometimes free.

• Almost millions of people who have no great interest in rowing or horse –racing , every year “the Boat Race and the Grand National” are watched on television. Some events have developed a mystique which gives them a higher status than the standard at which they are played deserve. In modern times, been rather low and yet it is always shown on television.

SPORTS AND MONEY

• Summer has traditionally been a season of great sporting events. But what seems less traditional to many observers is the way in which the commercial side of sport is these days, so much on display too.

CRICKET

CRICKET

• Cricket is the national English game in a symbolic sense. However, to some people cricket is more than just symbol.

• One game of cricket takes a terribly long time, which a lot of people simply do not have to spare.

• In fact there are millions of people in the country who do not just cricket but are passionate about it.

CRICKET

• Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players each on a field at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. Each team takes its turn to bat, attempting to score runs, while the other team fields. Each turn is known as an innings.

CRICKET

• The bowler delivers the ball to the batsman who attempts to hit the ball with his bat away from the fielders so he can run to the other end of the pitch and score a run.

• Each batsman continues batting until he is out. The batting team continues batting until ten batsmen are out, or a specified number of overs of six balls have been bowled, at which point the teams switch roles and the fielding team comes in to bat.

FOOTBALL

FOOTBALL

• For all the evidence of early ball sports played elsewhere in the world, the evolution of football as we know it today took place in Britain.

• The game that flourished in the British Isles from the eighth to the 19th centuries featured a considerable variety of local and regional versions - which were subsequently smoothed down and smartened up to create the modern-day sports of association football, rugby football and, in Ireland, Gaelic football.

RUGBY

• Rugby football is a style of football that developed at Rugby School and was one of many versions of football played at English public schools during the 19th century.

• The two main types of rugby are rugby league and rugby union. Although these two forms share the same objective of getting the ball over the line to score a try, the specific rules are different.

RUGBYhistory

• In 1871, English clubs met to form the Rugby Football Union (RFU). In 1892, after charges of professionalism (compensation of team members) were made against some clubs for paying players for missing work, the Northern Rugby Football Union, usually called the Northern Union (NU), was formed.

RUGBYlaws

• The main differences between the two games, besides league having teams of 13 players and union of 15, involve the tackle and its aftermath:

• • Union players contest possession following the tackle: depending on the situation, either a ruck or a maul can occur. League players may not contest possession after making a tackle: play is continued with a play-the-ball.

• • In league, if the team in possession fails to score before a set of six tackles, it surrenders possession. Union has no six-tackle rule; a team can keep the ball for an unlimited number of tackles before scoring as long as it maintains possession and does not commit an offence.
