The Top British Sporting Events


I will be writing about some of the most famous sporting events on the English calender. I am not personally involved in the world of professional sport, unfortunately.

I actually work on various projects to do cheaper mobile calls, how to stop stuttering therapy and also helping people with purchasing quality composite doors.

I am currently looking forward to the Fifa World Cup and have just enjoyed England’s win in the Ashes. These top sporting attractions do not take place each and every year, which is probably why they have such an appeal. The World Cup takes place every four years and the Ashes series with the Aussies is every two years.

Horse racing has two massive sporting events in its yearly calender, the Grand National and the Derby. I have always enjoyed watching the Grand National; there is a real chance of an outsider winning and the race is action packed. The Derby is good but in truth the entertainment levels are not in the same league as it’s National Hunt counterpart.

The Derby is also famous throughout the world and is a flat race. This race which is run over the Epsom downs racecourse and features some of the best racehorses from around the world.

The FA Cup of football is one of my favourite sporting events of the year. Some people may argue that it has lost some of its glamour in recent years but I would have to disagree.

The British Grand Prix in formula one is another great event from the British sporting calender. This out of all the events that I am going to write about is probably my least favourite, but is still worth a watch even for someone like myself who is not exactly a motor racing fan.

The Wimbledon Tennis Championships are always of interest to somebody like myself as I love to not only watch this sport but I also love to play the odd game of tennis as well.

In golf there is the British Open. This tournament is not as exciting as The Ryder Cup which takes place every two years but it is still very exciting to watch and there is always a live prospect of a British winner. I would recommend people keep an eye out for Ian Poulter; he is becoming better and better and I predict he will win a major in the next few years.
