As we all know, quizzing is a great way to spend your time. And if you’re looking to have a quiz, you’ll want lots of different topics to keep your guests and friends, family and colleagues busy.

And even if you’re just quizzing on your own, you’ll want to mix it up from time to time, even if your favourite topics are Tv and movies, there’s no jeopardy unless you try your luck at different subjects during the game.

As it happens, sport is one of the most popular areas for quizzers, because, well – people love sport.

But if you don’t want to research all the questions yourself, we’ve done you a favour and compiled a list of some of the best sport questions that you can add to your quiz – or just try to beat on your own.
