Quiz Writer
Jake didn’t think he’d become a writer when he was growing up in southern Saskatchewan, Canada, but fate had another idea. After barely squeaking through grade 9 English, by the luck of the draw Jake found himself with the most inspiring literature instructor his small town had ever known, and grade 10 English changed his life! Suddenly, evenings once spent at the hockey rink were spent curled up on the couch with the best of Hemingway, Dickens, and John Grisham. A valedictorian address and English degree at the University of Regina later, Jake is proud to call Heywise his favorite place to pen informative quizzes about all his passion projects. If you’re reading a post and pick up a hint of classic English literature, you’re probably reading something by Jake - especially if you come away feeling like a slightly better person for it.

The first sport to ever be recorded was a foot race, the only event hosted at the Ancient Olympic Games way back in 760 BC. More events were added in the years to come: such as boxing, discus, javelin, wrestling, and jumping. Chinese history describes a sport known as ‘Tsu Chu,' which was very similar to soccer in the way that no hands were allowed and the sport focused on kicking a small leather ball into a small hole – a sort of combination of soccer and golf. Nowadays, soccer is the most popular sport played globally and captivates the hearts of millions of people worldwide. At the 2020 Olympic Games, there is scheduled to be a record-breaking 33 main events, the most contested in Olympic history.
