The football match that takes place in a river
Every year, crowds gather in Bourton-on-the-Water to watch the local football team play a game in the River Windrush.
The tradition dates back 130 years when drinkers in the riverside Kingsbridge pub got bored one day and decided to stage an impromptu match in the water.
It's a 30 minute, six-a-side game, with the players from two of Bourton Rovers football club's teams.
