A ‘DERBY game’ is widely known, not just in the United Kingdom but in

many other countries, as a fixture between local rivals. Celebrated British

football derbies include the Glasgow clashes of Celtic and Rangers, the

Manchester contests between City and United, and the north London

meetings of Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur. In Italy, a match between

the Roman teams of Lazio and Roma is known as the Derby di Roma. In

Amsterdam a match between Ajax and FC Blauw-Wit would be called a

Stadsderby. In Nairobi, AFC Leopards play Gor Mahia in the Mashemeji

Derby, the derby of the in-laws.

As a resident of the city of Derby, I have often wondered whether

there was any connection between the city’s name and its use to identify a

game between two local teams. A quick search through opinions posted

on the internet is inconclusive. One theory suggests that a ‘derby’ has long

been a name given to any sporting contest because of the famous Derby

horserace which was founded by the 12th Earl of Derby. A ‘local derby’,

therefore, is simply a local sporting contest.
