Victorians liked playing tennis. (Eve Niblock)

Sport became extremely popular in Victorian times. Traditional sports like football, cricket and boxing had been played for centuries, but now they were given proper rules for the first time. The first Football Association FA Cup was played in 1871. This was when many football clubs were set up, ones like Aston Villa and Everton were set up by churches to attract more people to come to church. Others like Arsenal were set up by employers. Football was meant to keep people healthy and to encourage a sense of fair play. It wasn't that successful and free kicks and penalty kicks had to be brought in to clamp down on foul play. Tennis was also a popular sport in Victorian times. (Eve Niblock)
