Conkers for Goalposts

Conkers For Goalposts introduces readers to the essential rules and tactics of centuries-old schoolboy (and schoolgirl) pursuits, which have evolved complex traditions and customs unintelligible to the casual observer. This hilarious gift book explains the proud and noble history of playground games, taking the reader through the basics - the kit, the rules, the tactics, the training, and the moves so that you can truly rule the playground.
Conkers For Goalposts is a nostalgic treasure-trove and a hilarious spoof of those much-loved sports books that the school PE teacher used to give out to earnest young schoolchildren dreaming of Olympic glory.
