  • HITFOR
    • Lack of INCOME
      • Low wages and poverty were evident, with little spare income for leisure pursuits.
    • OVERCROWDING
      • Looking for work, the lower classes migrated to the urban areas to get jobs at the new factories being built -  this lead to loss of space so no room for the traditional mob games.
    • Loss of RIGHTS
      • Restrictions were made on mob games and blood sports by changes in criminal laws.
    • Lack of TIME
      • 72 hour working week, the shift from 'seasonal' to 'machine' time lead to long 12 hour working days, 6 days a week, no spare time to play sports, spare time used for rest.
    • Lack of FACILITIES
      • No access to private facilities or no personal equipment for the lower classes, this prevented participation.
    • Poor HEALTH
      • Along with poor living and working conditions which led to pollution, and lack of hygiene, all lead to lack of energy to play sports.
