2. The Football Competition When I was in the Junior High School, I joined two clubs. They were the Football Club and the Karate Club. I joined those clubs because I love sports, especially football and karate. I had football on Sunday mornings and Karate on Mondays at 4 p.m. One day my football club joined a football competition. There were eight clubs joining the competition. At first, our club won the match. Then, we had to defeat one club to get to the final. Fortunately, we won again. After those two matches, we had lunch in the cafeteria. We were so impatient to play in the last game. It was the hard one because our opponent was very tough. Finally, we won the game with a nice score of 3-2. We were so tired. However, we were happy and proud to be the winner of the competition. It was a very interesting competition in my experience.
