Also known as friendlies, exhibition match, preparation match, exhibition games, exhibition matches, friendly matches, friendly
An exhibition game is a sporting event whose prize money and impact on the player's or the team's rankings are either zero or otherwise greatly reduced. Exhibition games often serve as "warm-up matches", particularly in many team sports where these games help coaches and managers select and condition players, before the competitive matches of a league season or tournament. If the players usually play on different teams in other leagues, exhibition games offer an opportunity for the players to learn to work with each other. The games can be held between separate teams or between parts of the same team.
