The Great Game is a 1930 British film directed by Jack Raymond and starring John Batten and Renee Clama. It was written by Ralph Gilbert Bettison, William Hunter, John Lees and W. P. Lipscomb. It is one of the earliest feature films to use football as a central theme. Like The Winning Goal (1920) and The Ball of Fortune (1926), the main plot in The Great Game revolves around football.
