I was wondering if you had any idea on how many people participate in football?

Could you please tell me were I could find the scoring rule of basketball as I need it for my course?

Q. We are currently studying GCSE PE and we would be very grateful for any information on the topics of PE and SPORT in school. To be more precise about extra curricular activities as on the worksheet titled 'PE and SPORT in school'.
Thank you for your time and hope to hear from you soon.

Hi
We have worksheets called 'PE lessons', and 'A survey of school PE', but not one called 'PE and SPORT in school'. If you wish to complete the one on PE lessons you will need to look in The World of Sport Examined 2nd Edition. For the second you have to survey your own school and we can't help with that. Sorry!

Hi
This website:
http://www.cornerkick.com/news/2001/august/participation.htm
suggests that over 240 million people worldwide, that's one in every 25, regularly play football.
WOW!
