文化的背景

Football is the most popular sport for participation in Latvia, especially among children. Every school has a 'laukums' (field) where kids gather after classes. The Latvian National Football Team is affectionately known as '11 vilki' (11 wolves). Fans often use this imagery when talking about the team playing. Indoor football (telpu futbols) is a huge cultural staple during the winter months (November to March) when outdoor pitches are covered in snow. Football matches are often social events where 'alus' (beer) and 'ķiploku grauzdiņi' (garlic toast) are consumed by fans while watching others play.
