The British are
a sporting nation. Like everyone else they love football - in fact, they
invented it. Most British towns and cities have a football team. Every year,
each team plays in the Football Association competition. The two best teams
play in the Cup Final at Wembley Stadium in London. Some fans pay up to Ј200 for a ticket for
the Cup Final. It is one of the biggest sporting events of the year.
Cricket is a
typically British game. The only other countries that play are Pakistan, India,
the West Indies, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. Cricket is a summer
game, lovely to watch from under old trees on a village "green". It
looks slow, but it can be exciting if you understand what's going on.
Cricket is a very
long game. The big international matches go on for five days. But in the real
English way, the players always stop for tea. Tennis is another popular game in
Britain. Every summer, in June, the biggest international tennis takes
place at Wimbledon, a suburb of London.
Many British people
who live near the sea, a lake, or a river enjoy sailing. If you are really
enthusiastic, and rich enough to buy your own boat, you can take part in one of
the annual sailing races or "regattas".
