Leonie: Hello. What sport do most British people like? Is it football, cricket, rugby or something else? The
answer is very surprising. In this programme we look at sport, and we begin with some famous sporting venues.
This is Wembley - the scene of some great football matches. All tennis players want to win the tournament at Wimbledon. St Andrew’s, in Scotland, is the home of golf. Henley, on the River Thames, is the centre of the world of rowing. And here, in London, is Lord’s. It’s the headquarters of the game of cricket - a very British game!
But sport isn’t only for experts - all over Britain more and more people are taking up different sports and activities. Swimming is popular. There are over twenty thousand public swimming pools in Britain.
Leonie: How often do you go swimming?
Speaker 1: I go swimming once a week.
Speaker 2: I go swimming three times a week.
Speaker 3: I go twice a week.
Leonie: Why do you go swimming?
Speaker 1: Because it’s fun.
Speaker 2: I go swimming because it’s fun, and it’s a great sport.
Leonie: Lots of people go cycling. Over one thousand two hundred clubs belong to the British Cycling Federation. But the most popular sport in Britain is walking. About forty percent of British people go walking. There are two hundred and twenty-five thousand kilometres of national paths in England and Wales. These people are walking along the Pennine Way. It’s a very popular walk, and it’s four hundred and twelve kilometres long. Of course, not everybody walks from the start to the finish.
The British love watching sport, too. On television and live... over fifty-five thousand people go to see Manchester United play in Manchester on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
Horse racing, motor racing and rugby are also very popular.
Sport is for everybody - young and old. These people are doing aerobics. They do it to keep fit and because they enjoy it. Some people are more serious about sport. You find people at this club every night of the week. Some are training for competitions - some are hurdling... and some are running.
Trainer: Come on. Go! Go! Go! Well done! That was a good time.
Leonie: Wow! Very fast.
Most towns and cities in Britain have a variety of sports clubs and facilities - like this athletics club. They often have large sports centres, too. And don’t forget! In Britain you can also play some unusual and
interesting games. Cricket’s famous. But what’s this? It’s croquet. Originally a French game, it’s popular in Britain, especially if you have a large garden. Is this squash? No. It’s called real tennis. Modern tennis comes from this game. And what’s this? It’s a Scottish game called curling. You play it on ice! OK. On your marks. Get set. Go! I must get fit.
