520 | 3 | |a Sport, in the lives of British people goes beyond its meaning of play, it had become a national code, a way of life during the centuries. It was sport that became a pivotal part of the education on the isle and on the colonies, it was arguably the most effective power to create solidarity between social classes and also to distinguish social classes. Some people from different parts of the British Empire related themselves and their communities stronger to one sport than to another, differentiating thus themselves from other communities. It was during the glorious years of the British Empire that most of the popular sports of today became organized into smaller (local) and bigger (national) institutions. This had a very positive impact on the social and educational life of the working-class, instead of spending time aimlessly on the streets, they started doing sports at organized local venues that would later transform into today's sport clubs and associations. After the Industrial Revolution public transportation helped sports hugely to become available for the working class. Players and spectators could travel easily to games, newspapers with match reports could also easily be distributed. Sport was never really seen just as a playful game from the nineteenth century onwards. Sports, and especially team sports became a national institution and beneficial for Britain. The kind of meanings that are attached to sport wary enormously according to age, class, or simply by virtue of being male or female. It is very important to notice the gender problem in sport throughout the years of the development of organized associations, basically the history of sport in modern Britain is a history of men. Women only appear in organized sports during the twentieth century. Today, the Commonwealth Games carries on the competitive imperial legacy while Scottland, Wales and Ireland are all proud to represent their countries at international sporting events. England and Northern Ireland compete most of the time as a unified team. Sport is rooted in the lives of the British people, it has always contributed to the development of the notion of national identity. | |
