INTRODUCTION. 
IMPORTANCE OF GAMES IN THE MODERN WORLD THAT HAVE COME TO US FROM ENGLAND.

Sport came to us from the depths of centuries. It is good for health, because it makes the whole body work. In the modern world, people are moving less and less during work. As a result, the body does not receive sufficient load, it becomes less mobile. Fatigue comes quickly. It is followed by constant irritability, and even various diseases can develop. Sport should be seen as a game. It is forged on the anvil of the centuries from the ardent people's desire to be strong, hardy and dexterous. History shows that even during the Stone Age, competitions were held in running, jumping through ditches, throwing stones, boomerangs, arrows and spears. This is told by rock paintings and archeological finds. Many nations of the world have had games and entertainments with a competitive element in very old times.
Sport is an area of ​​activity related to the identification and demonstration of people's physical capabilities. Sports culture is aimed at developing and expanding human capabilities, conquering new peaks and revealing the potential of athletes. The purpose of my work is to acquaint myself with the brief history of the development of some famous English games. The subjects of this work are football, darts and polo. The relevance of this topic is that nowadays these sports are not only not forgotten, but also are among the most popular in the world.
Now I want to consider the origin and history of the development of the most famous English sports games more detailed.

CONCLUSION

So, we can conclude that sport has long been well-known as a universal and absolutely reliable way to promote health and good mood. Sports games are indispensable elements of physical culture, the purpose of which is to develop the body, motor skills, improve physical qualities, skills and abilities.
The games discussed above are the greatest legacy of England, which not only has not been forgotten by descendants, but has also emerged as the leader of modern games. So, football is carried away for long time outside the foggy Albion, the boys of all countries dream to become like Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo. By the way, next year the World Cup in football will be held in our country.
The game of darts was born in Britain several centuries ago, at that time, when the main armament of English soldiers was a bow. The years passed and the massive national sports game of the English crossed the threshold of the pub and spread to all corners of the globe. You can play darts both in the open air and indoors (in a sports hall, in a cafe, in an ordinary apartment). Darts does not require a special sport uniform, and the inventory for the game is simple and durable.
Darts is an extremely exciting and entertaining game. This is a great tool for leisure and raising of mood. It's a game of friends, a game among friends and a game that helps to find friends.

Of course, polo was gaining popularity and gradually spread throughout the world. However, this sport is not cheap, but, despite this, the number of people wishing to engage in horse polo is steadily growing. Maybe soon our country will join the world sports leaders, and Russian players will occupy a worthy place in the history of polo.
For those who play sports there are no language and age barriers, adults and children can compete. Exciting and affordable games raise the mood, relieve stress and fatigue, teach nobility.
