The British Sporting Boom

Michael Owen takes a lineoutWe play it, it’s on our TV in our living rooms and on social media on our phones. We see it in advertising and we talk about it in the pub. Sport is a way of life. But how did it come to this? In this talk we look at the origins and development of three very different British sports: football, rugby and cricket, their spread around the world and their growth in importance, with the problems this has caused.

Thursday November 12th 2015 at 6.30 p.m. Salón de Actos do IES de Sar.
