Sports in Our Life

Sport is an important part of our life. It is popular all over the world. Sport makes people healthy and keeps them fit. Some people go in for sports professionally and some for their health. There are many stadia, swimming-pools and sport clubs in each town. Many people do their morning exercises, train themselves in sport clubs and stadia. There are many kinds of sport which are popular all over the world, such as football, volleyball, basketball, skiing, figure-skating and others. Some people train themselves in swimming-pools or skating-rinks professionally.

At school pupils have their physical training lessons. Every school has its sports ground, and schoolchildren go in for sports in the open air. They play football and volleyball there, and when it is winter they ski on their sports ground. A lot of sport competitions are held at schools. All participants try to achieve good results.

Every year there are a lot of sport events and Olympiads. Once in four years the Olympic Games take place in different countries. The first Olympic Games were held in the town of Olympia, Greece, more than 2,700 years ago.

Many people like sport too, but they only watch sports on TV or listen to sports news. They like to read articles about sportsmen and watch their records.

There are summer and winter sports. My favourite kind of sport is football. I go to the stadium twice a week and play football with my friends. I like this kind of sport very much.
