I believe that we should play sports to make our lives rich.

I like playing sports very much and I have been playing many sports since I was a child. For example, swimming, the running high jump, a marathon, and so on. But tennis is a sport I like the best.

When I entered a junior high school, I somehow decided to join in a tennis club. At the first, training was too hard for me because I had to practice almost every day. In the rainy season, my coarch didin’t allow me to stop training in a little rain. And in summer vacation, I had few holidays. And I had little time to do other things. But I was really satisfied with my daily routine because my teams mates were so funny and I never got tired of. At the beginning, I knew few people and we weren’t good friends. However, through every day practice, we became close friends in an instant.

At the same time, little by little, I built up my physical strength. When I was an elementaly school child, I was, if anything, not so healty, apt to beome sick easily. But daily practice helped me to be healty.

Of course, it is not always pleasant to play sports. We sometimes go into slump or get injured. In such time, it is not clear anymore how we should continue. I have also went into slump many times and I felt I lost my way. I even thougt if I could continue it or not. But, at all times, my team mates encouraged me, so I could go on it so far.

In the univercity, now, I belong to a tennis circle and enjoy playnig tennis with my new members. We are so close, so even in the holidays, we sometimes travel or play together.

And still now, I see team mates in my junior high school and talk about some episodes those days.

Of course it is not always easy to continue to play sports, you may sometimes get lost. I hope, however, many people play sports, not only for their healths, but for priceless times with best friends.
