During the Great War
There was a need for more
Sport to entertain the troops
So games were set up for groups
Of soldiers behind the lines
Soccer and rugby were fine
And boxing was presented
For rest and recreation extended
At the end of the war sport was for all
And men returning home as their call
So sport was brought to the masses
With competition instead of war bashes.
