Is Bridge a game or a sport? That's the question that's in the news today as a judicial review opens into the decision by Sport England to refuse to recognise the card game as a sport.

But does it matter what it's called, and why?

Well, the Charity Commisssion considers it a sport, so does the International International Olympic Committtee, but at the heart of the matter is money.

Because it's a game, VAT is charged on all competition entry fees unlike other parts of Europe.

This makes it more expensive for people to play - and in Leicestershire alone around 1,000 people take part.

So what do you think? A sport or not?!
