Sport

Ringball, a traditional South African sport that stems from basketball, has been played since 1907.

Tennis is a racket sport that can be played individually against a single opponent (singles) or between two teams of two players each (doubles).

Tennis is an Olympic sport and is played at all levels of society and at all ages.

The sport can be played by anyone who can hold a racket, including wheelchair users.

It had close connections both to various field (lawn) games such as croquet and bowls as well as to the older racket sport today called real tennis.

Tennis is played by millions of recreational players and is also a popular worldwide spectator sport.

Today, it is the most popular sport in the world and many people watch it on television, especially the FIFA World Cup that happens every four years.

Badminton is a racquet sport played using racquets to hit a shuttlecock across a net.

The flight of the shuttlecock gives the sport its distinctive nature.

Since 1992, badminton has been a Summer Olympic sport with four events: men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles, and women's doubles, with mixed doubles added four years later.

At high levels of play, the sport demands excellent fitness: players require aerobic stamina, agility, strength, speed, and precision.

It is also a technical sport, requiring good motor coordination and the development of sophisticated racquet movements.

Swimming is an individual or team racing sport that requires the use of one's entire body to move through water.

The sport takes place in pools or open water (e.g., in a sea or lake).

Although it is possible for competitive swimmers to incur several injuries from the sport, such as tendinitis in the shoulders or knees, there are also multiple health benefits associated with the sport.

Even though Cricket, a British introduction, is India's most popular sport, the country's national sport is hockey.
