If you want to keep fit you must go in for one kind of
sport or another.
Sport is an essential part of my daily life. Every morning
all the year round I do my morning exercises. Almost every
day I do some training. In summer I go swimming or rowing.
During my summer holidays I go on hikes. I usually spend
my winter holidays in the country where I ski, skate or
toboggan. I also go in for track-and-field (athletics) events.
Different sports and games are popular with my classmates.
All my friends go in for different kinds of sport, such as
water polo, gymnastics, horse-racing, wrestling, fencing,
weightlifting, boxing, ice-hockey, speed-skating, figure-skating,
football, basket-ball, volley-ball, etc. We have fine teams at our
school and different kinds of competitions take place there.
The boys of my school are crazy about football, they play
football and the girls are football fans. The girls never miss a
single match played by school teams.
And now a few words about our physical training lessons.
In winter our physical training lessons are held out-of-doors.
We go skiing or skating. When it is cold outside P.T. lessons
are held indoors, in our school gymnasium. We play different
team-games such as basket-ball or volley-ball. Besides we have
some training in gymnastics.
In autumn and in spring, when the weather is warm we
have P.T. lessons at our school stadium.
My school has a sports day once a year in late spring. On
this day we have no lessons. All the competitors change into
their sports clothes, the spectators find their seats round the
track ready to cheer. All the events take place at the same
time. This day is a great success every year. Even if the
weather is not warm, we enjoy ourselves just the same.
