SPORTS
ATHLETICS Athletics is a competitive sport. Some people win and others lose. You can practice it outside or inside, on special tracks for it. You must wear special shoes and a special equipment to
go to competitions. You shoud always go to support your team in the competitions. You must always go with hair up so you can run confortably and you must always run with your knees up to get speed. Remember that you should always stay in your track. You shouldn’t put your arms out because you can nudge someone . The athlete who arrives earlier to the goals wins. So you must keep the time low. Athletics is my favourite sport.

BUNGEE JUMPING Bungee jumping is an extreme sport. It is a very dangerous sport, but it is fun. I love this sport because we can do it with your family. This sport is very difficult, because you have to trust yourself. It's like the feeling you have when you go on the roller coaster. The sport consists of throwing yourself
from a bridge tied to a rope. The bridge is very high. You have to wear confortable clothes so they don´t make
you feel umcomfortable.
You mustn´t remove the ropes, because you are at risk of losing your life, but you can shout and yell. You mustn´t be nervous because that makes you jump badly and you can have consequences. You can jump with another person. It is advisable to go with someone known because it is very dangerous and you get butterflies in the stomach when falling. In this sport you don´t win anything you just win fun and aventure. It´s exciting, frightening and you feel wonderful.

CROSS- COUNTRY Cross country is a great and healthy sport. It is individual. It is a race, but in the country, in the nature. You don’t need a especial equipment, only comfortable clothes and comfortable trainers. You must wear a number on your back. The judges use it to know your position and your name.
You shouldn’t go out of the path, because you can get lost in the forest. You should run quickly but steadily to win the race. You can listen to music during the race. After running, you should stretch your body. The winner is the person who arrives first to the finish goal. I like this sport because I can run free in the forest.

on each one. You can touch the ball with the hands and the arms but you can´t touch it with any part of the body. Each team give three touches at the most to give back the ball to the teh other team. The aim of the game is to go through the net attaining that it arrives to the floor of the other field and prevent that the other team do the same.
One of the peculiar characteristics is that players go rotating their positions to know who scores points.

The only essential equipment in a basketball game is the ball and the court: a flat, rectangular surface with baskets at opposite ends. Competitive levels require the use of more equipment such as clocks, score sheets, scoreboard(s), alternating possession arrows, and whistleoperated stop-clock systems. A regulation basketball court in international games is 91.9 feet (28.0 meters) long and 49.2 feet (15 meters) wide. In the NBA and NCAA the court is 94 by 50 feet (29 by 15 meters). Most courts have wood flooring, usually constructed from maple planks running in the same direction as the longer court dimension.The name and logo of the home team is usually painted on or around the center circle.
