From SOCCER to SURFING — twelve sports are hiding in the grid.
About this sports word search
The sports grid features twelve games and disciplines: ball sports like SOCCER, TENNIS and RUGBY, plus individual pursuits like ARCHERY, KARATE and ROWING. Sports words are satisfyingly varied in length — short punches like RUGBY hide well in corners, while CYCLING and BOWLING stretch across the board. A good warm-up grid for a game night.
