Sports in Bhutan comprise both traditional Bhutanese and modern international games. Archery is the national sport in Bhutan.[1] Competitions are held regularly in most villages.[2][3][4] Other traditional Bhutanese sports include khuru, soksom, pundo and digor.
International sports enjoy considerable popularity in modern Bhutan. Besides archery, many people in Bhutan play basketball.[1] Other popular sports include football and futsal. Cricket has gained popularity in Bhutan, particularly since the introduction of television channels from India.
