Sample 1

Although I have watched numerous sports competitions, one of them is special and worth mentioning, it was between our college and another team from a different city college, so I watched it at the stadium in my college.

I watched it with my college mates. I enjoyed it for many reasons. First and foremost, my college team participated, and most of the players were my good friends, so I cheered for them. Another thing was that I was involved in the team’s coaching because I am a good batsman.

The team invited me to share some good tips for batting, so I shared those tips with them. That was another reason. The third reason was that I left that college. So it was a college reunion kind of thing because many of my friends with whom I studied in that college were with me to watch that match,

We enjoyed good food over there at many food stalls. Plus, loud music was also playing, so we danced. It was a gala time going on one side. The match was going on on the other side. The celebration was going on; finally, it was a nail-biting match, but our team wanted it by holding its nerves. So, it was a great competition, and I enjoyed it to the fullest extent; the quality of time spent there will always remain in my memories.
