Topic 8: Popular British Sports and Games

Popular British Sports and Games
British people like sports and games. Their favourite sports are probably football, cricket and tennis, though many of them like such sports as golf and hockey, athletics and climbing, horse riding and boating, rugby and rowing. 
The British invented and developed many of the sports and games which are now played all over the world. Football is one of them. It was first developed in England. Now it is spread all over the country – in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Their national teams compete with each other every year. They take part in different competitions. The two best teams play in the Cup Final at Wembley Stadium in London. National teams of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland take part in European competitions and other international matches. 
Cricket is another popular summer sport. It is sometimes called the English national game. People play it everywhere: in schools, universities and in most cities and towns of Britain. Cricket is a very long game. International cricket matches can last for 5 days. 
Boxing is one of the oldest British sports. Golf was developed in Scotland and now is widely spread all over Britain.
Tennis, or lawn tennis, is also popular. The British hold their famous International Tennis Championship at Wimbledon in west London every June. People in Britain are also fond of swimming, boating and sailing. They are less interested in skiing and skating which are typically Russian sports.

I am fond of sport and this topic was really interesting for me.

  1. You should play Madden 21 on both consoles really. While in games like Madden it's fantastic to have the analog sticks away from each and every other (360), whilst it is also nice to have them side by side like (PS4). And in case your searching for better graphics, the Ps4 is your selection. But within the end it definitely does not matter which console you choose to play your Madden 21 on. They seriously all possess the same concept, except for the controller layout. But if I had been you racing games, 2kBasketball, and Madden are all fantastic for the Xbox A single. And games like Fifa, MUT, and MLB are good for the EZMUT.
