Essay on My Favourite Game

My Favourite Game Essay - Essay on My Favourite Sport/My Favourite Game Badminton in English

My Favourite Game is Badminton. All it takes is a willing partner, two rackets and a shuttle cock. We do not even need a net. After all we simply enjoy hitting the shuttlecock to each other.

My brother and I spend hours doing this just about everyday. We are not going to be world champions. It is simply great fun.

We used to do this with two old toy rackets. Since then our father had bought us two real, although cheap rackets. I must say we enjoy the game even more. Sometimes even my mother comes to join in the fun when she has the time for it.

The other game I like to play is table tennis. We have an old table, two bats and four balls. So on some days we play table tennis instead. This is a game that requires more skill. We cannot even hit the ball onto the table half of the time. This can be frustrating. So we go back to badminton which is far easier and more fun.

Since we play outdoors we are at the mercy of the weather. We often have to pause when the wind is too strong. It is difficult to hit the shuttlecock properly when the wind blows it away. Sometimes it rains, making it impossible to play.

I do play other games in school like cricket, basketball and football. Somehow they do not seem to be much fun. So l stick to badminton and table tennis.

• Shuttlecock : The object that is struck back and forth in badminton.
• Cheap : Costing very little; relatively low in price.
• Mercy : An act of kindness, compassion, or favour.
