Popular Recreation (SCOWL CORN) | Societal Factors |
Simple Rules | The majority of the lower class people were illiterate, so there was a lack of rules e.g. mob football-can't kill. |
Cruel/Violent | Events took place in the centre of villages usually around a pub (alcohol+big crowds encouraged rowdy behaviour) reflected the nature of society+harsh conditions that were faced e.g. events such as shin kicking and bare knuckle fighting encouraged violence. |
Occupational | People who were talented were picked up by local farmers, so they had the edge on opponents they would face e.g. talented cricketers could secure work on a family farm for achieving success against rivals. |
Wagering | The wealthy people would bet to show off their wealth, whilst the poor would bet to try and achieve the rags to riches dream. |
Local | Lack of transport e.g. only some people would have been able to afford cars. |
Courtly/Popular | Two class society, feudal system. Courtly- for the wealthy Popular- for the masses |
Occasional | Due to the social status of most of the participants (lower class-farmers) there participation was seasonal e.g. during harvest they would be too busy to take part, but in the winter during poor light they would be free to take part. Also holy days and holidays e.g. Shrove Tuesday+New year |
Rural | Lots of green, open farmland for events to take place on, lack of industry e.g. a stretch of farmland could be used as a cricket pitch. |
Natural/Simple | No equipment/specialist facilities e.g. mob football-no pitch, swimming would take place in lakes. EXCEPTION-real tennis for the upper class had courts and equipment. |
