Jeux et Tradi Normandie

Advertisements

The Fédération de Jeux et Sports Traditionnels Normande et Vikings runs competitons in the Traditional Sports of Normandy (North France) and the Vikings who settled there [References: 3].

From Wikipedia: “La soule, later choule or sioule, is a traditional team sport that originated in Normandy and Picardy. The ball, called a soule, could be solid or hollow and made of either wood or leather. Leather balls would be filled with hay, bran, horse hair or moss.” [References: 4]

It therefore would have close links with both the Traditional Celtic Games and the Atlantic or “Black Atlantic” Games.
