Best Answer

The Bible does not actually mention any sports that would have been played. Mesopotamians, Canaanites and other inhabitants of the Middle East would have played various ball games at that time. Although, the idea of a communal sport would not have arisen during this time period.

Most modern sports were not played according to anything resembling the current rules prior to 1500 C.E.
