Elizabethan Games, Pastimes and Sports
It is hard to think that an Elizabethan could ever get bored. When the weather was good Elizabethans could play bowls, tennis, football or practice archery and fencing. When the Weather kept them inside they played dice, cards, or board games. If they wanted to watch a sport they could go see bear baiting or cockfighting. There were so many games, activities and sports to play in the 16th century (Young).
Outdoor Sports
In the 16th century people took part in many various activities (Young). Some outdoor sports were played just for fun, other games practiced skills of war (Elizabethan England).
