I saw some table tennis on TV and found it quite interesting, so I thought I'd see if
there was a club or association in my area.
I looked everywhere, but unfortunately, the
nearest club was 100 kilometers away. So
without any knowledge, I decided to form
my own club. It was very hard in the
beginning - I didn't have any equipment
and I had to convince people that it was an
enjoyable way to keep fit. I organized a
small competition, which was a lot of fun,
and things started to grow from there.
Now we have full time training and our
opponents come from all over the country.
One of our members was even a bronze
medalist in the national championship.
Now we're also thinking of adding other
sports in our club, like tennis and
badminton
He had to buy medals for the small
competition that he organized.

Hobby is a favorite occupation of a person in his or her free time. People are different so they have hobbies of various kinds. Somebody likes to knit or sew things, other likes to make everything with his own hands or to draw, to take pictures. Many children and grow-ups are fond of collecting. They collect old coins, postcards, toys, stamps.
Hobby helps people to relax, to forget about their troubles and to have a good time.My hobby is learning English. Nowadays it’s especially important to know foreign languages because we need it for our work, for travelling abroad. Everyone who knows foreign languages can speak to people from other countries, read foreign authors in original that makes our outlook wider.
I think my hobby is very interesting and useful.
Хобби – это любимое занятие человека в свободное время. Люди разные и у них различные увлечения. Кто-то любит вязать или шить, кому-то нравится мастерить все своими руками или рисовать, фотографировать. Многие дети и взрослые увлекаются коллекционированием. Они собирают старые монеты, открытки, марки.
Хобби людям расслабиться, забыть про проблемы и хорошо провести время.
Мое хобби – изучение английского. Сегодня особенно важно знать иностранные языки, они нужны нам для работы и для путешествий. Каждый, кто знает иностранные языки, может говорить с иностранцами, читать зарубежных авторов в оригинале, что расширяет кругозор.
Я думаю, мое хобби очень интересное и полезное.
I was glad to receive your letter. Sorry i haven't answered so long. i really was busy, because i am in the summer camp now. How are you?
You asked how was it going. Well, i am rather fine. I made a lot of new friends here. We are always together. We go to the river, to the forest and have much fun. In the evening we usually sing songs, play different games.
By the way, where are you now? How are you spending this summer? What is your mood today?
Anyway, have to go now. Write me back as soon as you can.
