Sports and games popular in England
— What would you say are the most popular games in England today?
— Well, I suppose football, that is, soccer, racket and cricket.
— What are the other outdoor games?
— Oh, there's tennis, hockey, golf, and so on. Tennis is played all the, year round—on
hard courts or grass courts in summer, and on hard or covered courts in winter.
— What about horse-racing?
I should say that is one of the most popular sports in Great Britain. Then there are, of course,
walking-races, running, swimming and boxing.
— I've been told that there are no winter sports in England.
— Well, you see; the English winter isn't very severe as a rule and we don't often have the
chance of, skiing, skating or tobogganing, but winter is the great time for hunting, provided
the ground is not too hard.
— Is there any golf to be had near London?
— Oh, yes, any amount. There are dozensof good golf-links within an hour/or so of London.
You ought to join a golf club if you're keen on the game.
— I think I shall if I get the chance. What about indoor games?
— Well, there's chess, billiards, cards, table tennis... By the, way, do you play billiards?
— Well, but of 'course, I'm not a professional or a champion, justan ordinary amateur and not a
very good one at that.

The most popular spectator sport is football. Football is played ... a Sunday afternoon ... most British towns and the fans, or supporters ... a particular team will travel ... one end ... the country ... the other to see their team play.
Many other sports are also played ... Britain, including golf ... which you try to knock a ball ... a hole; croquet ... which you try to knock a ball ... some hoops; basketball ... which you try to get a ball ... a net; tennis ... which you try to hit a ball so that your opponent cannot hit it and cricket which is played ... a ball, but is otherwise incomprehensible. As you can see, if the ball had not been invented, there would have been no sport.
Actually that's not quite true. Athletics is not played ... a ball, nor is horse-racing. Perhaps that explains why they are not so popular as football.
