Some people call this the Scottish Olympics. The real name is the Highland Games. These games are not only sporting competitions: here music is as important as sport-the music of the pipes and drums and traditional Scottish sports like the tug-of-war. The most famous of these summer games is the one at Braemar, watched by the royal family. But nearly a hundred smaller games are held between May and September all over Scotland.

While athletes throw the hummer at one end of the arena, you can watch a dancing competition at the other end. The most popular Scottish dances are the Highland fling and the sword dance. Of course the dancers, pipers, athletes, in fact nearly all the competitors at a Highland games wear a kilt. So also do the judges, and the soldiers in the military pipe bands.

This is a caber. Tossing the caber is a sport for the strongest athletes. Each caber weighs about sixty kilos and is six metres long. The caber must not fall back towards the athlete; It must fall forwards-Yes! Like that! Will it go?...Yes! Well done!
