Don't let Sports intimidate you.

I have two Sports quizzes online and another on the back burner that will get written and submitted...sometime. Want to take a guess at how much yours truly knows and cares about sports? Bingo, got it in one - *zilch*!

In the first case, I had a specific goal. Having done a special quiz for my twenty-fifth, imaginatively titled "Silver", I wanted to do the same for my fiftieth. A title came to me. I checked and found, to my surprise, that no quizzes existed on my chosen subject which, by the way, is very specific. I'm not interested in ice skating in general. I'm only interested in Torvill and Dean. I studied and worked, and submitted the quiz. And, not only was the quiz accepted, it earned me an Editor's Choice. Like I told the editor who awarded it to me, that was the best Christmas present I'd gotten in a long time.
Here's the quiz:

The second one was an accident. Some time after my Torvill and Dean quiz, I wrote a quiz for the 'Breakfast Food' subcategory of Hobbies that ended up not fitting there. . The editor suggested I try it in Sports. I did, rather doubtfully, and it was accepted.
Here's the quiz:

The moral of the story is: Sports is just like any other category. You might fall into it by accident or you might find a specific topic, like an athlete,/team, a particular competition or some aspect of a game/sport that intrigues you. Drilling down through the subcategories and sub-subcategories can be helpful too, to see what the category as a whole embraces. There's no telling what you might find.
