My favourite sport is volleyball. I like to watch volleyball competitions on TV and I love playing this game!
Two years ago I joined our local volleyball club. We have three training sessions a week where we practise serving, blocking, and hitting. I love playing volleyball and I feel it has a positive influence on my body and mind. I don't need to worry about my weight and now I have a stronger immune system. Playing volleyball provides me with energy and positive emotions. It taught me to never give up and to fight till the end. I also have met new friends there. With all these benefits it is clear that this sport is great for me.
Мой любимый вид спорта - волейбол. Мне нравится смотреть соревнования по волейболу по телевизору, и я люблю играть в эту игру!
Два года назад я начал(а) заниматься в местном волейбольном клубе (секции). У нас три тренировки в неделю, где мы отрабатываем подачу, блоки и атакующие удары. Я люблю играть в волейбол и чувствую, что он оказывает положительное влияние на мое тело и ум. Мне не нужно беспокоиться о своем весе, и теперь у меня более сильная иммунная система. Игра в волейбол дает мне энергию и положительные эмоции. Волейбол научил меня никогда не сдаваться и бороться до конца. Я также встретил(а) там новых друзей.

My favourite sport is roller skating. It is great for people of all ages. I learnt to roller skate a few years ago and it is my favourite outdoor activity now. I love going downhill as well as doing spin turns. I like this sport because I can skate practically everywhere, and all I need is a pair of skates and comfortable clothes. When I started to learn to roller skate I used to wear wrist guards, elbow pads and knee pads. Now I skate very well and most often I don't wear my protective gear.
Roller skating is fun and great exercise for the whole body. It is a popular sport to lose weight and be fit. They also say that roller skating clears the mind and treats mild forms of depression. Well, I know for sure that this sport makes me happy!

Мой любимый вид спорта - катание на роликах. Этот вид отлично подходит для людей всех возрастов. Я научился кататься на роликах несколько лет назад, и сейчас это мое любимое занятие на свежем воздухе. Я люблю спускаться с горы, а также делать крутые повороты. Мне нравится этот вид спорта, потому что я могу кататься практически везде, и все, что мне нужно, это пара роликов и удобная одежда. Когда я начал учиться кататься на роликах, я надевал щитки для запястья, налокотники и наколенники. Сейчас я катаюсь очень хорошо, и чаще всего я не ношу защиту.
Катание на роликах - это весело и это отличная тренировка для всего тела. Это популярный вид спорта, чтобы сбросить лишний вес и быть в форме. Также говорят, что катание на роликах очищает разум и лечит легкие формы депрессии. Ну, я точно знаю, что этот вид спорта делает меня счастливым!
