List of rural sports and games

This page lists sports and games which have traditionally been played in rural areas. Predominantly they come from the British Isles.

Some take the form of annual events in a particular location associated with the tradition. Others have become more widespread, being played in local fairs or festivities in different areas. Some are pub games. Many remain somewhat obscure, and perhaps due to their unusual or quirky nature, have not developed into established sports.
