Popular sports during WWll are baseball, football, and boxing. Cheerleading was for only boys until 1930 and that was when women started to become cheerleaders because the men had to go fight at war. These sports helped people through the hard times that were going on all around the world. It helped these people because it distracted them from the bad that was happening around the world. Both girls and boys were allowed to play sports during this time period instead of just boys. As to the war started to take shape many penalties started to take place because people took out their anger on the playing field. As tension grew in the war it carried on to the sports industry too. Players would shove, hit, and kick other players. Many materials that they used in sports were taken away from the sports industry to use during the war such as wood and rubber.

Boxing would ready troops for hand-to-hand combat. The war not only affected the careers of certain fighters, but also helped to make or break the fame of many others.Television began airing fights on multiple nights of the week to fans around the country. This helped certain fighters gain more exposure, but also hurt the fighters in the lower echelons of the sport who were trying to establish themselves. Basketball during world war 2 used to be called BAA before they came up with NBA. BAA and NBL merged to form one league and that's how NBA was made, which was started in 1950 and only had 17 teams.
