BONUS: Ready… Set... Go! Sports From the Low Countries

from History of the Netherlands · host Republic of Amsterdam Radio

In this episode of The Low Countries Radio, we are going to delve into some of the sports that have developed in, or been adopted by and grown in, Belgium and the Netherlands. We will hear about people who listen intently to birds in little boxes while they keep track of their calls on a big long stick, others who jump over canals using a big long stick, as well as a bunch of people skating the famous Elfstedentocht and smashing a very hard ball across a field using their hands. So saddle up, wait for the starting gun...on your mark. Ready... set...go! Do you want to know more about Flemish and Dutch history and culture? Visit www.the-low-countries.com.
