1. Read about Kate and Paul's favourite sports. What are they?

Kate

Field hockey has been around for more than 4,000 years. It's a sport widely known in 112 countries and it's one of the top six sports played.

This year was my very first year playing field hockey. I wasn't sure that I was going to like it, but it turned out that it is now one of my favourite sports! When I went to the first practice, I was worried about all the rules I had to learn and my position. To be honest, it is not that hard at all! Once you start doing it, it is like learning how to ride a bike, you won't forget it! Having a great coach, Mr Rahn, made it easy for me to learn because he is fun and explains things in a way that is easy to understand.

During the game, there are eleven players out on the field. In my opinion, this is just enough people to play the game. If there were less than 11 girls, it would be a lot harder to pass the ball, but if there were more than 11 girls, it would just get crowded. My position is a mid-fielder. In this position you run the most. You have to go up and down the field, basically just following where the ball goes! I personally love this position because it is where most of the action happens and I am really good at it.

Paul

It's hard to explain my love for hockey. I've grown up with it and have played it since I was 5. I love it because of the fights, because it's fast and the fact that it's a sport my dad and I can share and play together. When playing, I just love skating down the rink and feeling the cool breeze. In a school team, I play right wing and fall over a lot, which means my knees are always covered in cuts!

Ice hockey is played on ice by two teams. The sticks are used to shoot a hard hockey puck into their opponent's net. Six members of each team skate up and down the ice trying to take the puck and score a goal.

Hockey is difficult to play. You can't just one day decide to go play hockey, you need to learn how to skate, stick handle, etc.

My favourite team is the Toronto Maple Leafs, I'm their biggest fan.

Hockey is most popular in areas of North America (particularly Canada and northern parts of the United States) and Europe. In North America, the National Hockey League (NHL) is the highest level for men's hockey and the most popular. Ice hockey is the official national winter sport of Canada. Worldwide, there are ice hockey federations in 73 countries.
