Fencing originated from Spain where several books were written. Fencing, was also called Olympic fencing, it is a sport in which two competitors fight using 'Rapier-style' swords. They win points by making contact with their opponents. People still fence all over the world. Fencing began the move from a form of military training to a sport in the 14th or 15th century.
The Adventure s of Fencing By. Michonda Moliere
Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the father of the Olympic Games, was a fencer. Fencing has been included in Olympic games since 1898. 3
When you think of the olympics, what sport do you think of? Most people think of basketball or football or track. Gymnastics was introduced in early Greek civilization. After the roman invasion of Greece, gymnastics was adopted by the Roman army for training exercises. When Rome declined, gymnastics did too. Men´s gymnastics was on the schedule in the first Olympic games in 1896. Women´ s gymnastics was on the schedule in 1936. The competition has six events events for men and four for women. Each event event combines flexibleness, gracefulness, and dance-like movements.
Gymnastics By Lorian Walls
There are three different types of gymnastics. Rhythmic, Artistic, and Aerobic. Rhythmic gymnastics is currently a female only sport. They perform with various dance moves to music. Artistic gymnastics are the most well known form of gymnastics. They are different for men and women. Basically, they use many appliances and the floor. Aerobic is a routine that typically lasts 60 to 90 seconds and are performed on floors with no equipment.
Some famous female gymnasts are Gabby Douglas and Simone Biles. Gabby has three gold olympic medals and Simone has won four. Many people think that gymnastics is one of the easier sports. Gymnastics is actually very hard. It takes flexibility, balance, rotation, spacial awareness, skill and routine timing, focus, and many other things. People shouldn't underestimate the power of gymnasts!
Lionel messi is still
under 30 years old and still one of the best soccer players there has ever been. He won the 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 awards for the best player in the world. I think this year he is going to win the best soccer player award in 2016-2017.

Football by: Gradyn Anderson Did you know that football on, November 6, 1869? It's a combination of rugby and association football. They used to have hammer nails into their shoes. Pudge Heffelfinger was the first person to play football. He was paid 500$ per game just to play football. In 1909 they changed a field goal from 4 points to 3. The best football team today is the Dallas Cowboys. They have the best record in the NFL. Their record is 11,1.
They started winning when Dak Prescott came in. The let Dak come in because their starting quarterback Tony Romo injured his back. Then the next backup injured his hand. Then Dak Prescott came in and they started winning. Then their rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott has the most rushing yards in the NFL.

Luca Haymon Stephen Curry Stephen Curry went to Davidson College in North Carolina. Stephen Curry was drafted in 2006 for the Golden State Warriors in the first year of the NBA he struggle as a rookie, but later down the road he started to get better and now he have the quickest jumper in the NBA right now. Stephen Curry won two MVP in 2015 and 2016 and won the NBA championship in 2015. Here is some reason that Stephen Curry so good he have a really quick jumper and really good dribbling skills. I think in 2017 Golden State Warriors will win another 7
