 My favourite sport: Volleyball
Volleyball was originated in 1895 and it was created by William. G. The maximum of hits

in each side is 3.

The players can touch or hit the ball with all over the body, but they can’t catch, hold or

throw the ball. They need to be 6 players to play. The player can’t hit the ball twice in

succession. This sport can be played in a track. The length of the match depends of the

points team do.

The equipment is special for some parts of the body that we have to protect. For

example, knee pads serve for protect our knees.

There are some famous players of his sport. One of these are Karch Kiraly, Logan Tom,

Yekaterina Gámova,... But my favourite player is Logan Tom. There is a national team

that haven’t won any medals, trophies or championships as far as I know.
