MY FAVOURITE SPORT

Hello my name’s Araceli and this is my favourite sport. My favourite sport is “paddle”. I’ve been playing to this sport two years. I play paddle on Saturdays in the

morning in “Loma Linda” (Ogíjares). I dedicate an hour to paddle the week. I play paddle with my brother, my parents, etc. This sport entail in four players that play with

a ball and a special racket in a track of 20m x 10m, with a net in

the middle, the track it close with walls and fences around .The paddle has a number of special shots like the “Mate”, the “Balloon” , etc. This sport is very

funny. The rules are equal that tennis only that the paddle is rebounding. The

punctuation is as in tennis 15, 30 and 40 and who reach six games wins. The best players of paddle in Spain are Pitu Losada and Juan Mieres.
