Spring Sports Quiz Questions and Answers

How much do you love Spring? If you love Spring a whole lot then you owe it to yourself to test your knowledge of Spring -- and in particular Spring Sports -- with these fun Spring Sports Trivia Quiz Questions and Answers.

While Spring is not my favorite season it is in the top two and while I am immersed in it then it is my favorite. Spring is beautifully lush and green here in Kentucky and I just love watching the bright greens, pinks, and purples wash over our rolling hills almost as you watch. I am a gardener so it is the colors and scents of spring that mean the most to me.

However, these Spring trivia questions are not about the whole season but just one particular aspect of it -- Spring Sports. I grew up playing and watching baseball and softball but I recognize there are other Spring Sports too. Find out how much you know with these fun trivia questions and answers.

Spring Into Action Trivia

Baseball

Little League baseball was established in 1939. This is the most well-known amateur league still being played today!

Coroebus was the first Olympic track and field champion in ancient Greece. He competed as a Sprinter. The pentathlon was one of the main Olympic competitions.

A baseball field is approximately 2 acres. It is equal to 0.8 hectares if that means anything to anyone!

Track and field

Cricket, Rounders, and One O' Cat were all predecessors of baseball. Yes, Rounders and One O' Cat were really games.

The original pentathlon which was part of the ancient Olympic games included discus, javelin, foot racing, long jumping, and wrestling. Of course, it is important to remember the foot races were performed in full armor.

When Lewis Rober of the Minneapolis, Minnesota, fire department invented outdoor softball in 1895 to keep the firemen in shape and busy during the time they spent at the firehouse, the game was called Kitten League Ball. Although it was later called Diamond Ball in 1922, softball did not gain the name we use today until 1926 when Walter Hakanson of the Denver, Colorado, Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) conceived of it while attending a meeting in Greeley, Colorado, to form the Colorado Amateur Softball Association.

Women's fast-pitch softball debuted as a medal sport at the 1996 Olympic Summer Games in Atlanta, Georgia.

The National League of Professional Base Ball Clubs (National League) was formed in 1876 and was soon followed by the creation of the American League in 1882. Players had been able to collect pay since 1868 before the formation of either league.

Little League was founded in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, which is also where the Little League World Series is held each year.
