UNIQUE SPORTS

Chess Boxing: This is a hybrid sport that combines the physical demands of boxing
with the mental rigor of chess. Competitors alternate between rounds of chess and
boxing, starting with a round of chess. Each round lasts three minutes, regardless
of whether it’s chess or boxing. The match ends by either knockout, checkmate,
judge decision, or if a competitor exceeds the time limit in chess.

Cheese Rolling: This is a very unique and somewhat dangerous sport that
originated in England. The event is traditionally held on Cooper’s Hill near
Gloucester. A large wheel of cheese is rolled down the hill, and competitors race
after it. The first person to reach the bottom of the hill wins the cheese. Despite the
risk of injury, the event attracts competitors and spectators from around the world.
