BASEBALL
A sport played on a field by two teams
against each other. In baseball, a player
on one team throws a small round ball
at a player on the other team, who tries
to hit it with a bat, which is like a long,
round club. Then the player who hits the
ball has to run around the field. Players
score points by running around in a full
circle around three markers on the
ground called bases, and back to where
they started, which is called home plate.
They have to do this without getting
caught by the players on the other team.

Golf is a game enjoyed all over the world by
both players and fans. It's a sport that
requires concentration and precision, and it's
enjoyed by professional athletes and
amateurs, both of whom compete throughout
the year for titles and prizes. Many people
consider golf an easy game to learn, but not
everyone is actually good at golf. The basics of
golf include hitting a ball with a club, trying
hard to hit the ball directly into the hole on
the green.
To play golf a golfer needs a set of clubs, no
more than 14, of varying lengths and sizes, a
set of golf balls, and a golf bag. There are
more accessories available, but a beginner can
start with just clubs, balls, and a bag.
A team play game pits two people or a team
of two to three people against each other.
Similar to a stroke game, the strokes used
count as your score but it's tallied as a team
rather than individually.

the prescribed dimensions of the court.

throwing. These events are
divided into the sub-sports of

Boxing, sport, both amateur and
professional, involving attack and defense
with the fists. Boxers usually wear padded
gloves and generally observe the code set
forth in the marquess of Queensberry
rules. Matched in weight and ability, boxing
contestants try to land blows hard and
often with their fists, each attempting to
avoid the blows of the opponent. A boxer
wins a match either by outscoring the
opponent—points can be tallied in several
ways—or by rendering the opponent
incapable of continuing the match. Bouts
range from 3 to 12 rounds, each round
normally lasting three minutes.
BOXING
American football is a unique
sport -- it is a game about
gaining territory as much as it
is about scoring points. When
two teams step onto a football
field, each is battling for every
inch it can take from the other.
Each team wants to defend the
field that is behind it and
invade the field in front of it.
Ultimately, they want to gain
enough ground to score a
touchdown or field goal.

10. Surfing is the sport of riding waves in an
upright or prone position. Surfers catch
ocean, river, or man-made waves, and glide
across the surface of the water until the
wave breaks and loses its energy.
In the ocean, wave riders stand up on
surfboards and navigate the water -
nearly parallel to the beach - toward the
shore. There are four types of surfing
waves: spilling waves, plunging waves,
surging waves, and collapsing waves.
The ultimate goal of surfing is to ride and
progress on the unbroken part of the
wave using a surfboard. Nevertheless,
beginners can learn to surf in the
whitewater part of the wave

Bungee jumping, sport in which the jumper
falls from a high place with a rubber
(“bungee”) cord attached both to his or her
feet and to the jump site, and, after a period
of headfirst free fall, is bounced partway back
when the cord rebounds from its maximum
stretch. It traces its roots to the “land diving”
practiced on Pentecost Island, Vanuatu, in
which divers jump off a high tower, their feet
connected to it by a vine whose length is
calculated to allow the jumper to fall until his
hair just brushes the ground below.
