LET'S EXPLORE SPORTS THAT HOLD CULTURAL HERITAGE AROUND THE WORLD

Where? The USA.

My favorite sport is baseball. It's one of the most popular sports in my country. Yesterday. we learned some rules during physical education class,and later, we played for a few hours.

Where? Canada.

I started playing ice-hockey two years ago, after. I went to a game with some friends.

It is Canada's national winter sport.

I joined my school ice-hockey team, and I'm training really hard.

Where? Argentina.

In my country. Argentina, the national sport is pato. It began a lot of years ago. and it is similar to polo. My father played this sport and won many cups with his team.

In the future, I'd like to play pato too, but I need to learn to ride a horse first!

Where? Norway.

Cross-country sking is part of Norwegian culture and our national sport.It is a lot of fun, and it's perfect for a perfect day out. It's a great way to explore beautiful Norwegian landscape and connect with nature.
