Maps of America

I have choosen this map as baseball is typically America. It is one of the most popular sports in America and the team names reflect the part of America where they are from eg New York Tankees. Baseball is known as 'the national pastime of America'. Americans are very patriotic and this is the same when it comes to sporting teams, with most choosing to support their local team unless they have moved. Whereas is Britain people usually support the team that is currently the most successful. Sporting events in America are also used for spending time as a family with parents taking and encouraging their children to participate in sporting games and even being themselves coaches. Sports also lead to a high level of school spirit which is just not found in Britain.
