Best Answer

The formal rules on sports of the middle ages were very scarce. If you were not of the nobility, you could not joust. But if you were qualified for a sport by class and sex, there was nothing prohibiting you from just doing it.

An example of a sport, and who could play, is medieval football. One form of this was called "mob football," and the sides were made of whoever wanted to play on that side, without regard to who or even how many there were. I think the only rule might have been where the goals were. There is a link below on Medieval Football.

1st Answer:Sports as we know it wasn't done in the middle ages. There weren't "teams" and a national fever about sports. The sports were hawking, hunting, wrestling, weapons practive, foot races, dice games, horse races, checkers, chess, blind man's bluff, and chess were played by the noblity.2nd Answer:I think anyone could play sports in the Middle Ages, just as they can today. There was really very little in the way of restrictions except for sports like jousting, which were only open to knights. But there were a lot of sports available, and many of them were really open to anyone.Please see the related question below for information on medieval sports.
