Jasmine’s Beach Volleyball Blog
Saturday 25 th June
Today was an important day – we trained
for seven hours! Why? We’ve got a big
beach volleyball competition tomorrow!
There are eight teams in the competition with
the best young players in the country. Every
team has got two players. I’m in a team with
Naomi – she’s really good!
We started at 8.30 this morning – I don’t
mind getting up early! First, we went on our
bikes for two hours. I love cycling – it’s good
exercise and you can become very fit. Next,
we practised beach volleyball – it’s a fast
game and you need to move and jump all the
time!
At 12.30 we were tired, hungry and thirsty, so we had a healthy
lunch – it’s important to have a good diet when you’re doing a
lot of sport!
In the afternoon, we played matches with friends, and we
watched some other players. I’m very excited about the
competition tomorrow!
