And football! "It was Cornish miners who introduced football to Mexico. The country’s first football club – Pachuca Athletic Club – originally comprised exclusively of Cornish mine workers. The Mexican League of Association Football was established in 1902. The first championship was played that same year and in the 1904-1905 tournament it was El Pachuca that won first place. To this day the city of Pachuca still prides itself as being the home of Mexican football." https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/environment-and-planning/conservation/world-heritage-site/delving-deeper/the-spread-of-cornish-mining-around-the-globe/cornish-mining-in-mexico/ https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/environment-and-planning/conserv...
