Feauture: Traditional Physical Cultures, Sport and Games

 

Bulletin 67 presents an exciting and comprehensive feature on Traditional Sports and Games (TSG). The rise of the international sports movement in the 20th century has caused TSG to lag behind or even disappear.

 

But there is good news; TSG are coming back to life again. This renaissance is due to the significant role TSG can play today as part of cultural heritage and local identity. This global trend to rediscover, develop and promote TSG is present in many ways: in renewed interest in research and publications; ever-more organizations being established; and in increasing numbers of practical events at the local, regional and international levels.

 

With contributions from many different perspectives and nations, the collection will give an excellent international insight into the topic.
