I like playing football on the playground where is in the north of our school. I like them because I can play football with friends happy and we can also have matches. Although we are busy with our study, we always spared as much time as possibly to practise. As matter of fact, I begin playing football when I was only eight years old, and I have been good at it. I joined in the school team as soon as I entered senior high school. How fun it is to play football, especially on the beautiful autumn days with a number of fallen leaf on the ground.
