  • Sports and Games in the Middle Ages
    Sports and Games in the Middle Ages Medieval sport was an exciting spectator event and, much like today, it drew large crowds. Most sports were enjoyed on Sundays and on feast days when folk did not have to work and were free to pursue leisure activities. Many of the popular sports played in the Middle Ages are the predecessors of modern sports. Football One early form of football, first described in a twelfth- century account of London, was a combination of football and rugby and involved carrying the ball into the goal. Another, ‘camp-ball’, was played in a large open field, sometimes several miles long, and by an unlimited number of players. Neighbouring villages might take each other on and riots could ensue. Handball, golf and hockey evolved from this game. At this time balls were made of leather and stuffed with either cloth or straw; or pig bladders filled with dried peas were used. Early forms of football have been played since medieval times. Bowling Bowling was greatly enjoyed in medieval times. There were various forms of the game. Some were like skittles whilst others were similar to boules or petanque. It is thought that marbles was a mini form of bowls developed especially for children. Other Sports Caich was a game resembling modern-day racquetball. Players would bounce a ball against a wall using a pole or bat. However, as caich required a specialized ball it was only played in urban settings by people of at least moderate economic standing. Ice skating was a popular winter pastime.

  • The Design and Building of a Pétanque Terrain
    The Design and Building of a Pétanque terrain Edition 3, 2021 Brian Forbes Contact at; [email protected] All enquires will be responded to and every attempt will be made to assist you with your project. Wishing you well and happy playing 1 Preface Over the ten years since this guidance was first written, it has been a great source of pleasure for me to assist with projects around the globe, having had frequent personal contact with many builders of terrains from as far afield as the U.S.A. and Australia, as well as Great Britain. Discussions on this subject must amuse our French cousins and cause them to shake their heads in wonder – they just move their cars off the car park and get on with it! That said however, in the South of France where the game originated, few more temperate locations enjoy the same dry warm weather and consequently the majority of the rest of us are primarily obliged to consider drainage due to rain. My presumption here is that you are going to be outside! This is just as well, because the laying of indoor pistes is outwith my knowledge. At the outset it has to be said, that for as many “experts” that you consult on the best way forward, you will receive just as many answers. The final objective is however the same – a hard surface with variations in level and gravel thickness which will make the game both interesting and a challenge. It is true, “You play against the terrain, not just your opponents”.
