War - Ww1 - War And Sport Poem by Paul Warren

War - Ww1 - War And Sport



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.
