Sport & Recreation


Issue 12: December 2, 2004 - February 10, 2005

Sumo: Not Just for Heavyweights
You don’t have to go to Japan to take up sumo wrestling: Moscow has a number of sumo schools offering classes to just about anyone who wants to learn.


Issue 11: November 4 - December 2, 2004

It Takes Balls
The French game of petanque is closely related to Italy’s bocce or the quintessentially British lawn bowls. The game is said to have originated with the ancient Romans, who brought their simple stone-throwing version to Western Europe.


Issue 10: October 7 - November 4, 2004

Free-falling fun
Was I courageous or downright stupid? I didn’t tell my parents I would be doing it. With my feet dangling below me as I watched my parachute unfold (thank God!), visibility was nil.


Issue 9: September 9 - October 7, 2004

City Skate
For in-line skating enthusiasts, Moscow may not seem the ideal city for extreme blading or even for a nice evening skate along the river.


Issue 8: July 8 - September 9, 2004

Velo Moscow
The thought of battling through Moscow’s snarled traffic jams and dodging its suicidal drivers would make the bravest of cyclists go weak at the knees.

Set Sail
There’s a new trend among Russia’s ultra-rich that has become as essential for one’s status as buying a mansion on the Cote d’Azur or hanging out at the Cannes Movie Festival: owning a yacht.

Pro Tourney Tees Off
While golf may be a long way from rivaling hockey or soccer among Russia’s favorite sports, the Russian Golf Association is attempting to put Russia on the world golfing map with the BMW Russian Open.


Issue 7: June 10 - July 8, 2004

FA Cup Final
FA Cup Final day on May 22 in Moscow saw hundreds of English soccer fans painting the city’s sports bars, including Doug & Marty’s Boarhouse and SportLand red and blue, as the Red Devils of Manchester United took on underdogs the Lions of Millwall.

Body by Pilates
Swimsuit season is upon us and the beach resorts are beckoning. But after trading layers of winter clothes for a bikini, some beachgoers may discover that their swimsuit is two sizes too small.


Issue 6: May 13 - June 10, 2004

Splish Splash
Feel like a dip? If you can’t wait for Moscow’s beaches to open, the time is right to visit a pool. The Chaika swimming complex at Park Kultury boasts two open-air swimming pools, open all year round, with the water heated to a pleasant 29 degrees Celsius.
