Sporting memories of Prince Philip
Last updated on
BBC Sport takes a photographic look at Prince Philip s life in sport.
Prince Philip graced the world of sport as a participant and a spectator - here are some sporting memories of the Duke of Edinburgh. Cricket was a long-time passion and this picture shows him practising in the nets in July 1947 while serving in the Royal Navy.
The Prince (second right) was a keen polo player during his youth and became one of the top players in Britain. He is pictured here after a polo match in June 1950.

THE Great Barrier Reef is already in a critical state. Rising sea temperatures are killing corals faster than they can recover. As temperatures continue to increase, more and more of the reef will die, along with the rich variety of life and the AUS$6 billion tourism industry that depend on it.
It is one headline-grabbing example among many. The continued rapid warming of the planet would wipe out many species, even if it were the only change happening. As it is, a sixth mass extinction in Earth’s history is already under way as farms replace forests and factory ships overfish the oceans.
