In the UK there are 2 sports that dominate our free time, and they are football and cricket. Usually people like one or the other as they are very different sports to watch and play. From an early age young children will start supporting a football team and follow that team through the years. Often a football team is local to the person so they will support that club, or people will support the successful teams. Football is played through the Autumn, Winter and Spring months, whereas cricket is traditionally a Summer sport.
