Strange but true: sports you should know

Sports have always been an integral part of human life. From traditional and historical games to modern and advanced competitions, they all reflect the human interest in movement, excitement and competition. But have you ever heard of sports that are rarely mentioned in the media and perhaps you have not even heard of them? This book takes you on an exciting journey through the world of sports that, despite their charm and challenges, are still unknown to many. This book introduces sports from around the world, each with its own unique characteristics. Some of these sports, such as underwater hockey, require a combination of swimming skills, physical strength and strategy. Others, such as bungee jumping, take courage and excitement to the next level. Sports such as Sport Stacking or Sport Badminton require unparalleled speed, precision and coordination. Each chapter examines the rules, history, playing field, equipment required and key strategies of these sports. We also look at world competitions, official federations, and the effects of these sports on physical and mental health.
