Favorite sporting/gaming pursuits for many Slaabovians

Reposted from my Slaabovian Baseball Chronicles thread:


@-@-@-@->>>>


The history of sporting and gaming events in the territory now occupied by the Slaabovian Republic somewhere in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean is quite extensive, with some sports and games quite popular, as of 1901. I will elaborate much more about that history later on, if and whenever I can and whenever it may be warranted enough, I think.

But for now, at least, the sports and games that are most often played or competed in periodically over in much, if not all, of Slaabovia's inhabited areas areas are as follows. Keep in mind, however, that they are all not necessarily ranked here in order of popularity among the inhabitants of Slaabovia, folks:

Baseball/softball
Football (Gridiron-style)
Basketball
Ice hockey/field hockey
Ice skating/figure skating
Hunting
Fishing
Horse racing
Dog racing
Camel racing
Llama racing
Soccer
Track and field events
Archery
Fencing
Wrestling
Boxing
Dancing
Rifle shooting and other gun sports
Scavenger hunts
Swimming
Diving/scuba diving
Sailing/yachting
Boat racing
Canoe racing
Spelunking
Golf
Tennis
Board games
Card games
Gymnastics
Weightlifting
Skiing
Speed skating
Snowshoeing
Sledding
Cricket (very rare)
Racquetball
Handball
Bullfighting
Hiking
Biking
Endurance contests
Polo
Water polo and other water sports
Martial arts
Camping
Adventuring

These are many, but probably not all, of the various sports and games that are periodically participated in or practiced, et cetera, by the inhabitants of Slaabovia at the current time. There are probably more such pursuits that are followed by them, but these are at least most of them, if not all of them, at the current time, as I've been able to figure out here well enough by now. CD out.

I would like to be able to create a custom hockey game world in FHM 5 starting sometime before 1917, but I do not yet know if I'll be able to do that, and add fictional nations to said hockey-related game world. In the case of Slaabovia, at least, I'd probably start with a league of no more that 12 teams, in either two divisions or two conferences. And handle things much like I have done and am doing in various baseball-related dynasties of mine for teams and leagues in Slaabovia, for instance, if not entirely in such a manner or in such manners.


I suppose I'll just have to try and do some tinkering around and all, and see if I can do that easily enough somehow, of course. Although I don't really know if I'd actually be able to change team logos and all in FHM 5 just yet, to be completely honest with you here, Eugene. Here's hoping I can, you know, though. CD out.
