Top 10 most popular sports in the world
Hi and welcome to our channel
Today we are talking about
The Most popular sports in the world
1. Soccer
As you could have guessed, soccer also known as association football
or simply football outside North America and Australia
It is the clear winner in this contest.
In fact, It’s the most-watched sport in the world by a huge margin.
2. Cricket
Cricket is second on our list – and with good reason.
While this sport is not popular worldwide,
it could easily be one of the most popular sport by country.
Cricket was invented in England, in the 16th century
and became a national sport in the 18th century.
It was then exported to the far-flung corners of the British Empire,
which was succeeded by the Commonwealth.
3. Basketball
Basketball is a relatively new sport,
but that did not stop it from taking the third position on our list of the most popular sports in the world.
This sport was invented in 1891 by Dr. James Naismith
4. Field Hockey
you can probably guess, field hockey is very similar to ice hockey,
except for the fact that it is played on grass.
Watching and playing this game is the favorite leisure activity of around 2 billion people around the world,
making it one of the most popular team sports in the world.
5. Tennis
Tennis is also known as the White Sport because players used to wear exclusively white clothes,
which they are still required to do at Wimbledon.
It has around 2 billion fans worldwide.
Tennis was first played in France,
but it quickly spread to other parts of the world and is today one of the most-watched sports.
6. Volleyball
Volleyball is one of the most popular sports in the world,
even though it is only famous on some continents.
It is estimated that its 1 billion fans mostly come from Europe and North America,
though some Asian countries enjoy watching a volleyball match as well.
7. Table Tennis
Tennis is such an amazing game, its fans simply couldn’t get enough of it.
That’s why they decided to create another, smaller version of the original game.
8.Baseball
baseball would easily take the top spot.
This sport is also popular in Japan
and the Carribean, but the US is simply obsessed with it.
9. Rugby
Rugby (officially football) as distinct from soccer
or association football started about 1845 at Rugby School in the eponymous English town of Rugby.
It is primarily popular in the Uk , Ireland, Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand.
It is played by two teams of 15 players each,
with an oval-shaped ball that can be carried, kicked, or thrown.
10. Golf
Golf has a following of around 400 million fans,
most of whom reside in Western Europe, North America, and East Asia.
This is a very expensive sport because of the equipment you need to buy to practice it.
That’s why it is mostly played by business people.
