HISTORY ON TABLE TENNIS

Table tennis was created in 1881 by some British Officers who were really bored. They carved a ball from a champagne cork and used cigar box covers to hit it back and forth across a wall of books seperating a table. Of course the sport has changed alot since the past century, and it has become alot more popular. Table tennis can be played by any age. Although less than one percent of these players actually play competitively. Others play for fun or relaxation. A competition of table tennis didnt even come true until the 1930's. In the 1900's the paddles were made with long handles and a pear shaped playing surface. Table tennis is also known as Ping Pong. It was mostly played by rich people. Women also played it. This topic is so interesting. Thank you for giving me this topic Mr.Wood. YOU ROCK!!!




HISTORY AND RULES OF DARTS!!
(FUN FUN FUN (UGH))

Darts is a fun social game that has been around a very long time. Probably ever since Mr. Wood was born. (lol j/p). Darts began in Medieval England. People that study history think that people teaching archery just had their students shorten thier arrow thingys and had them throw them at the bottom of an empty wine barrel. The fact that the bottom of an empty wine barrel was used is a clue to how the game developed into a pastime. The smart people also think that the soldiers took the shortened arrow thingys to the bar to show the other people what they could do and also to have fun at the same time. Then pretty soon the wine barrell went pretty scarce and some dude brought in a cross sectioned large tree. Pretty interesting stuff huh?? Yea well lets my report and I did it so you cant get mad.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
