Arquidiocesano Sports Newsletter

Last year my basketball team competed at our championship (OLIARQUI). We weren’t good at all and we lost. The other teams were much better than us. We were an inexperienced team.
But this year we’re going to set things right. I’m the oldest person in my team so the pressure on me is a little bigger. Next month we are competing in a very important championship: OLIMAR. We have been training for this for 3 months and it’s very important for our coach, Patinhas. Actually, Patinhas is his nickname, his real name is Ricardo but no one calls him like that.
For our luck, our rival, Dante Alighieri, is not competing against us because this championship is only between Marista school. Every game we played against them we lost, but always the scores are always similar.
There is only one problem, I had to do a surgery in my nose, and I won’t be able to train for 1 month. This will affect my performance at the games, and I’m very worried about it. We haven’t started to learn the moves yet, so I’ll miss them. But I believe in my team and I know that they can do it.

That’s it for the moment!
