"Hello and welcome to the first ever Sports day!" Mia announced loudly, looking beautiful in her green ice-skating perfomance outfit.
A few days earlier the girls were all discussing about their upcoming games for the sports they play. Mia being the athlete she is thought of the perfect thing to do...they would have their very own Sports Day! Each of them could talk about the sport they do or play, and if possible show them some moves or tricks. :) So, the day came after getting into their costumes, they went into the auditorium.
"First we welcome Molly and Addy." Mia said trying to sound as professional as possible.
"Hello," Addy began,"Molly and I do a sport called yoga."
"Yoga is a system of development of the body, mind, and spirit." said Molly.
"It makes the body flexible and strong, and brings about emotional stability, and clarity of the mind." Addy finished.
"Before you do anything, you first need to stretch, for at least 5 minutes." Molly advised.
"Now, We will show you a few moves we like to do." Addy said after the 5 minutes of stretching.
After showing the girls some moves, Mia announced the next one to go.
"Next, we welcome Abbey."
Abbey bowed.
"I do Karate. I bowed because that is the custom you do before a competition, or whenever you are practicing with someone. Karate is a Japanese Martial art, a system of self-defense," Abbey continued,"It consists of sharp quick blows of the hands and feet. I don't do it unless I am practicing, in competition, or see the need to defend myself, though. I am a red belt, the belt order varies from school to school. I only have brown, and then I will be a 1st degree black belt, there are 10 degrees of black belts. Also, I started doing Karate at 9, and now I am 11. I am a quick learner," Abbey smiled," Now I need a volunteer."
Hands flew up. "How about Kit." Kit happily got down from the bleachers.
"Now Kit, get that purple practice pad and stretch it across your hand, hold it up, and stand still." Abbey jumped, and hit the very center of the purple practice cushion.
Kit fell, but was ok. "Wow, that was Amazing!" Kit said, as she got up. Everyone clapped.
"I would like to introduce...whoops, me." Mia blushed forgetting that she was next.
"I am an ice-skater. I can do tricks like the scatch spin, the sit spin, a camel which is probably one you have seen, where you lift one leg up in the air and spin," Mia demonstrated this by lifting up one of her legs,"There is also a Hamill Camel which is a Camel and sit spin combined. Does anyone have any questions?" Molly lifted up her hand. "Yes, Molly." Mia said.
"Do you get really nervous before a competition?"
"Great Question! I do get really nervous before I compete, but I focus on what my routine is and have fun with it! I don't want to look up-tight, but relaxed. I know that my parents are in the stands cheering me on too!" Mia smiled.
"Now, let's welcome Kit!" Mia said after her turn was over.
"I like to play baseball," Kit said,"I don't play on a team, but just with the boys and girls in my neighborhood. I wear my Red's hat and Jersey, when I play though, to get in the baseball mood."
"I have been to a few Red's Games before and they are so much fun! When they get a home run I about jump up and down!" Kit's eyes lit up about speaking of her favorite team.
"Now let's welcome last but not least, Elizabeth." Mia stated.
"I like to do all kinds of gymnastics, but Rhythmic gymnastics is my favorite." Elizabeth said she then stood up and got her clubs and ball, "I am going to show you a new trick I have learned."
Elizabeth started juggling them, but dropped her ball and one of her clubs. As she stopped and reached for the club, she tripped on the ball that was right behind her and crashed into the stage.
"Aaaaaah!" Screamed Elizabeth.
"Are you ok?" Mia asked, hoping that everything was ok.
"It's my ankle," Elizabeth said painfully as she sat up,"I think it's sprained or broken. Also, my finger hurts."
The girls quickly helped Elizabeth to her feet, and soon Elizabeth's mom, Mrs.Cole drove her to the hospital. When Elizabeth got home from the hospital Molly, Kit, Mia, Abbey, and Addy went to her house to visit her. She had a really bad sprain on her left ankle, and had sprained one of her right fingers too. Her cast would come off in a few weeks though.
"Hi everyone," Elizabeth said happy to see her friends."Thank you so much for coming!"
The girls noticed Elizabeth's cast, and were sad for her. "Does it hurt?" Abbey asked. "It hurts sometimes, but it mainly itches." Elizabeth said.
"Can we sign your cast?" Mia said hopefully. "Sure, my mom bought me some stickers that stick on the cast, and they are so cool! You can use those!" They all had fun decorating Elizabeth's cast.
Even though Elizabeth got hurt, they all had a fun Sports Day.
Ps~I don't know all about these sports so if I said something not correct or didn't do something correct, I am sorry. :)
