The Sporting Alphabet

[higherlevel4u]

You'd think I'd have had enough Alphabet Threads by now, wouldn't you?

But no .... here I am again, thinking of yet more ways I can spend time posting on Lit ....

This one may be more for the boys, but hey, I'm all for equality of the sexes, so you girls get your thinking caps on too .... there's a very large remit on this one .... starting with the letter A, post anything to do with sport .... it could be the name of a sportsman .... a sporting venue ..... the name of a competition ..... a trophy .... items used in sport ..... hey, the list is endless (which should give everybody plenty of scope!).

So thinking caps on and away we go ... I think it probably is a good idea to give a little explanation with the post, so we all know who or what it is ...

Let play commence ....
