The exhibit, Sports More Than Just a Game, currently on display at the Greenwich Historical Society as the title suggests is more than just about people playing games. It is about the important role sports plays in society. At times, they reflect what is going on in society, and at times, they impact change. Among other things, they help break barriers including gender and racial barriers.

Of course, with that being said, sports are still fun and still an opportunity for talented athletes to attempt to achieve their best. This exhibit celebrates that as well with an emphasis on athletes who have some connection to the local area. Perfect game pitcher, David Cone;  Olympic Gold Medalists, Dorothy Hamill and Donna De Varona, these are only a few of the athletes covered in this engaging exhibit. Memorabilia on display includes an Olympic torch, a Cy Young Award, numerous jerseys, and so much more. If you are a sports fan, you won't want to miss it.
