One of my favourite sports is cycling, because it is very funny and I like riding a bike with my friends a lot.
In Spain, the best cyclist and winner of “Le Tour de France” is Alberto Contador.
He was born in Madrid, on December 6h, 1982. In 2007 he became the youngest Spanish cyclist who won the Tour of France;
the second in the Giro of Italy 2008, and whe won the Spanish Tour in 2008 too, so he was the first Spanish one who had won three big competitions in the world( record which the Frenchmen Jacques Anquetil and Bernard Hinault, the Italian Felice Gimondi and the Belgian Eddy Merkx had obtained)
He is one of the best climbers of the moment and also he became one of the best to do the three biggest stages.

I love volleyball
by Roberta V. from Italy
My favourite sport is volleyball. I love playing and watching it. In the past I used to play it about three times a week but now I don’t play it any more. Volleyball is a fantastic sport and I’ d like to play it again. In my ex team there were only girls, now they play tournaments and I am one of their greatest fans! However I play volleyball in my free time. The Italian national team won the World and European Championships. My favourite sportswoman is Francesca Piccinini. I love volleyball because it is very exciting.
Bruce Lee
by Luigi S. from Italy
"The best fighter is not a boxer, a karateka or a judoka. The best fighter is someone who can adapt to any style of fighting. "
(Bruce Lee)
Bruce Jun Fan Lee (Chinese traditional 李小龙, pinyin Xiǎolóng Li, San Francisco, November 27, 1940 - Hong Kong, 20 July 1973) was a Chinese actor, martial artist, philosopher. Born in San Francisco and grown up in Hong Kong, Lee is the most remembered actor in the world for the presentation of Chinese martial arts. His films, produced in Hong Kong and Hollywood, elevated them to a new level, for the first time and suddenly increasing the interest in this type of discipline in the West. Lee became an icon especially for the Chinese, as a portrait of national pride. Some saw Lee as a model for acquiring a strong and efficient body and a high level of physical fitness, while developing skills in close combat. Despite the violent content of his films, Bruce was actually a peaceful person and against the use of martial arts as a means of offence and leadership.

Dance is My Life!
Barbara from Italy
My favourite sport is dance. I like all types of dance. I attended eight years of classic and modern dance, but I want to try a new dance and I think I will do Latin American dances, because I like them a lot. Last summer I did couple dancing for two months in an afternoon course at the seaside and I had a very good time!! It was a wonderful experience, also because I had the possibility to meet some stars of this field, such as Umberto Gaudino, Raimondo Todaro and Stefano di Filippo, who won the world championship in 2008. I watched them carefully while they were dancing on the stage during a performance of theirs and I dreamed with them: I hope to become a good dancer, but I have no illusions. The most important thing is to devote oneself completely!
In the pictures below:
Stefano Di Filippo
Raimondo Todaro
Federica from Italy
My favourite sport is dance. I'm a fantastic Latin American dancer! Exactly, I dance samba, cha cha cha, rumba, paso doble and jive. My idols are Riccardo Cocchi and Julia Zogoroutchenko, who are champions in this sport. I like Stefano Di Filippo and Hannah Korttunnen, too.
I've been practising this kind of dance for six years, since I was eight. It is very hard. I participate in some competitions every year. In this sport, the dancers wear particular clothes and shoes. They are very expensive because there is Swarovski crystal on them. I love that!
Giusy from Italy
The sport I prefer is Latin American dance. My idols are Michael Malitowsky and Joanna Lewis. I started dancing 10 years ago, when I was a little girl. I dance in competitions and I particularly like wearing my beautiful dresses! I really love them!

I like dancing
by Roby P. from Italy
My favourite sport is dance. I have liked dancing since I was a little girl and now I attend dance classes twice a week.: on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5 to 7 pm. Dancing is a very beautiful thing, especially if you do it for passion. When I dance I feel free and I don’t think about anything else. My favourite ballet dancer is Rossella Brescia. I like her because even if she is not so young any more she is still in shape and she transmits emotions when she dances.

"Pink" Football!
by Caterina from Italy
My favourite sport is football. I have loved it since I was five years old. I like watching matches on TV and my favourite team is Inter! I think it is the best team in Italy and it has a lot of good players.
I play football in a team called "Pink" (because in it there
are only girls...!). We train twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays. We take part in a tournament every year. This year we are in a good position in the table, but not first, like Inter!
Anyway, it doesn't matter, because I enjoy myself very much playing football!

We haven't got a favourite sport
I don't like sports
by Gigi from Italy
I think that sport is very important but I don’t like doing sports because I am very lazy.:)
It is very important because it is useful for your body and health.
In this period I’m going swimming but I don’t like it very much.
No favourite sports, but...
by Maria Rita from Italy
I haven't got a favourite sport, but when I have free time I go to the gym and to the swimming pool. I like swimming because I relax. If I could I'd stay in the water all day! In fact, I go to the swimming pool or to the gym when I've had a bad day, because then I feel better.
I go there about 3 times a week. I usually prefer going on Saturday afternoons, before going out with my friends. Anyway, I think swimming is more interesting and relaxing than working out in the gym.

Figure Ice-Skating
by Martina from Italy
My favourite sport is ice-skating. This sport is very interesting for me but I have never even walked on the ice rink. The most popular Italian figure ice-skater is Carolina Kostner. She was born in Bolzano on 8th February 1987 and now she lives in Oberstdorf, Germany, where she studies and prepares for the competitions.
Carolina has participated in several competitions, which have made her famous; in the year 2001, in fact, she won the Italian Junior Championship and many other competitions followed, which brought her to be named by the president of Coni standard-bearer of the Italian team, on 22nd November 2005.
Obviously she has made some mistakes during her competitions; however, for me she remains the best ice-skater.

What a feeling!
Rosanna from Italy
My favourite sport is dance. I’ve been practicing it since I was 4 years old, so for 11 years. I love dancing, it is a way to relax, to think, to reflect and it is a way to express what I don't succeed in saying with words. I have always loved it since I was a child. When I dance I don’t think about anything else, it is as if the problems that I have at that time magically faded away. Dancing with these feelings is a wonderful thing. I do classical, modern, contemporary, jazz dance, tap-dancing and hip-hop and these various types of dance are all splendid, each in its way, and each of them allows me to feel a different feeling while I am dancing. In short, dance for me is a sport indeed, but it is especially a performing art. The people who don’t practice it don’t know what happens inside you when you dance.
Viviana from Italy
My favourite sports are dance and football.
I started dancing at the age of five, but I stopped when I was nine because I had too much homework. I really like modern and Latin American dance.
I also like football. In my school I play as a defender and train every Tuesday afternoon. As a class we also play against other classes in the morning, when we have P.E. lessons.

The synchronized swimming.
One of the sports that I like most is the synchronized swimming because it is a sport that combines swimming, dancing and gymnastics. The synchronized swimming consists of doing dance moves in the water. It is a sport principally for girls. In Spain there is a team of synchronized swimming that has won many awards, this one is composed only of girls. It is a very beautiful and elegant sport .
