Top 10 Best Medieval Sports
Some ancient sports are still played today. Which do you think are still the most fun after centuries?Also, it has become a pro sport. It was the main weapon of its time, one of the few that could fire long-range, and was operated by just one person. Kill a man quick!
Archery is number one because it's a good sport to test your accuracy. Even Robin Hood fancied playing archery!
Archery is number one because it is the most efficient weapon. In the Battle of Crécy in 1346, the French army was decimated. It is estimated that nearly 2,000 French knights and soldiers were killed by longbow arrows. The English lost just 50 men.
You learn a new way to walk and challenge others. Of course, hitting someone feels good. Why shouldn't it? It's not something you are born able to do, so it really is unique.
Fencing is the best sport in the world. I know it started in the 1400s, but it is very dangerous. I own a fencing court. My parents are millionaires. I own 15 fencing swords.
Fencing is great. It builds strength, muscle, stamina, agility, concentration, and coordination. It also works the cardiovascular system.
Jousting was created in medieval times as a form of entertainment.

Very cool! The first time I went horseback riding was when I was 5 years old. It was so much fun!
Well, all you horse lovers must love this.
Well, I know tons of people do this in high school.
I think hammer-throwing would be quite fun because you can see how far you can throw it.
It's an Olympic sport now, so it must be good.
It's really fun.
I love this because it is a bit like cricket.
Okay, listen, bat and ball is the bomb.
I enjoy bat and ball.

Bowling is such a fun game.
