The Game (Or, Sport) I Like Most

[The Game of Football]

Games and sports are helpful for keeping sound health. People enjoy playing both indoor and outdoor games as it is the best source of leisure. I often play cricket, football, table tennis, etc. Among them football is the most favorite to me. It thrills not only the players but also the spectators. So, it is my most favorite game.

Football is an outdoor game. It is a very exciting game of 90 minutes. There is a break after 45 minutes. It is not a costly and time-killing game. The game of football needs a field and two bar posts. Cricket, table tennis, lawn tennis are very costly and time-killing games. In this respect, football is more exciting and enjoyable.

Football is a team sport played between two teams of eleven players each. The game of football requires a field of about (110-120) yards long and 70-80 yards wide and two goal posts at each end. Football is played by kicking the ball with foot. During the game, only the goalkeeper can touch the ball with hands. The players can also head the ball.

The referee with two linesmen conducts the game. Everything is supervised by the referee when the game is played. Any of the player who does anything against the rule of football is given penalty. In this game, the team which scores more goals wins the match.

Football is a game of great interest and enjoyment. It makes the limbs of the body orderly and helps proper blood circulation. It keeps the players fit and active. It also teaches the qualities of leadership. It makes players prompt, cautious, strong and hardy. It teaches us discipline, team spirit and unity.

Sometimes the players may be injured or wounded. That's why, there remains sufficient arrangements for first aid in the field.

Football is my favorite game because it has charms and excitements. It is an interesting and exciting game. It makes me cheerful when I watch it. I dream to be a professional football player one day.
