Sports in daily life

In my city there are many areas where you can practice sport in fact, there are open spaces where at every time of the day you can find people running to keep fit. When I was a child I used to go with my dad in this areas to run but it was very tiring. People to keep fit attend the gyms and in fact in Rome in recent years the number of gyms has increased. My favorite sport is football. I play football with my friends twice a week and this is my favorite hobby I play in a team and I’ve taken part in many tournaments and I have also won a cup. I’m a forward of my team and I score many goals it is fantastic when I score a goal all my friends run towards me to celebrate.If I had time I would go to Turin because my favorite football team is Juventus. It would be fantastic to meet my favourite players and stay with them. I hope to see a Juventus match in the new stadium soon.
