How were middle ages weapons made?
In the middle ages there were men called "stariosis" men that worked day and night making weapons for the knights that fought in battles. The Starosis use to get paid 70 coins a day for all their hard work. The Starosis were also very close friends with the king and one of the Starosis called Jarodd Reester was claimed king of England in 1567. When Reester ruled England he paid all the stariosis men 150 coins a day.

Difference in the sports they play now to the middle ages?
Medieval sports consisted of jousting, sword fighting, etc. Modern day sports is more team oriented such as, football, basketball, etc. ----- Sports of the Middle Ages included all sorts of things we would recognize today, including various forms of billiards, bowling, golf, football, and a number of others. The biggest difference was that the rules were not written down, and sometimes were virtually nonexistent. One of the forms of football, for example, was sometimes played with no limit to the number of players on either side. It was called mob football, and was often played in the middle of a town, with no apologies to passers by, who might get drafted into the home team, if they were local. Jousting was done in the Middle Ages, and was more important than the exhibitions we see occasionally today. But that sort of thing was only played by knights, and common people were left out. It was something for the historians to talk about, but quite probably most competitions involved the common folk.
What did men do on a normal day in the middle ages?
Serfs worked for the king or lord three days a week. In return the lord gave them a peice of land. The other three days serfs worked on their land providing for their families. Sundays were God's day. Serfs usually attended church and then had the rest of the day to themselves.
