Sporting scene in Holland
The Dutch favor outdoor, communal sports over spectator events. Soccer draws crowds of 65,000, rugby thrives among youth, sailing is stylish in Rotterdam and Amsterdam, and canal houseboats dot Amsterdam. Cycling is a major sport with long endurance races and prize money, while golf remains little known. Gambling exists with Lotto and Toto, gambling laws liberal, and fishing remains the most popular activity for the young and old.
