Canadian Sports and Leisure Of the 1920s

Leisure Inventions of radio and motion pictures changed the way people spent their free time. Radios were a means to make a much greater variety of information and entertainment available to a wider audience. http://archives.cbc.ca/arts_entertainment/media/topics/16 31/

Leisure Silent movies were a popular form of entertainment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF38g4z_ l_4&feature=related

Sports The 1920s have been called Canada’s Golden Age of Sports. With shorter work hours and more money to spend, Canadians began to attend more sporting events such as baseball, football and boxing.

Sports Hockey games could be heard on the radio. http://www.histori.ca/minutes/minute.do?id=14272 Racing, rowing and swimming were also very popular.

Women & Sports Women began to take part in organized sports. In 1928, women were able to compete in track and field in the Olympics for the first time. http://www.histori.ca/minutes/minute.do?id=14297 Women’s basketball gained more recognition.

Women & Sports However, rules and regulations for women’s sports were often different from men’s. It was considered unhealthy for women to exert themselves as much as men.

Changing and Conflicting Attitudes Nightclubs became popular: people could relax, dance, smoke, drink and listen to live entertainment. There were people who objected/were against these new activities and attitudes.

The flappers were one group many considered offensive The flappers were one group many considered offensive. These were young women who seemed to take pleasure in rebelling, and going to nightclubs and dancing the latest dances. Many thought it was scandalous that these women were doing activities traditionally done by men, especially drinking and smoking.

Fashion In women’s fashion, hemlines went up, hair styles were short, reflecting a new freedom for women. In men’s fashion, pants went baggier with hats and bowties. Such trends could only be afforded by the wealthier members of society.
