My Favorite Sport
My favourite sport is karate, which is one of the Oriental martial arts. Karate is a popular sport in the world because it improves self-confidence and self-discipline, memory and attention. Besides, karate teaches us self-defence, respect, self-control and patience.
I learnt about karate from films where fearless main characters fought enemies without any weapon. When I was nine, I started practising karate. Since that time I have been training twice a week in our local sports centre. The lessons are physically hard but I enjoy them. Our sensei teaches us patiently and inspires us to become better people. I have already participated in a few competitions.
I am glad that I chose karate because it gives me so much: I have become more patient and physically stronger.
My favourite sport is basketball. I like to watch basketball competitions on TV and I love playing this game!
Two years ago I joined our local basketball club. We have three training sessions a week where we practise serving, blocking, and hitting. I love playing basketball 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 basketball 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.
