I can't believe that it ever got as far as the High Court. |

For some activity to be a sport rather than a game it must require all of strength, skill and bravery. Perhaps somebody could explain how curling, darts, golf and target shooting fit into that. |

I agree with the High Court. I wouldn't call darts a sport either. I think a sport should be something a bit physical where you have to expend some energy (not that I would know anything about that). |

The High Court has decided that bridge (the card game) is not a sport and therefore does not qualify to receive funds from lottery or government. |
