some sports we mention it below.


Tennis is a racket sport that can be played individually against a single opponent
(singles) or between two teams of two players each (doubles). Each player uses a
tennis racket that is strung with cord to strike a hollow rubber ball covered with felt
over or around a net and into the opponent's court. The object of the game is to play
the ball in such a way that the opponent is not able to play a valid return. The player
who is unable to return the ball will not gain a point, while the opposite player will.

Tennis is an Olympic sport and is played at all levels of society and at all ages. The
sport can be played by anyone who can hold a racket, including wheelchair users.
the most famous tennis players are: Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal,
Andy Murray, etc.
BASKETBALL: Basketball is a limited-contact sport played on a rectangular court.
While most often played as a team sport with five players on each side, three-on-
three, two-on-two, and one-on-one competitions are also common. The objective is
to shoot a ball through a hoop 18 inches (46 cm) in diameter and 10 feet (3.048 m)
high that is mounted to a backboard at each end of the court.
the most famous basketball players are: Lebron James, Michael jordan, paul
gasol,etc.
HANDBALL: Is a team sport in which two teams of seven players each (six outfield
players and a goalkeeper) pass a ball using their hands with the aim of throwing it
into the goal of the other team. A standard match consists of two periods of 30
minutes, and the team that scores more goals wins. Modern handball is played on a
court 40 by 20 metres (131 by 66 ft), with a goal in the middle of each end. The goals
are surrounded by a 6-meter (20 ft) zone where only the defending goalkeeper is
allowed; goals must be scored by throwing the ball from outside the zone or while
"diving" into it. The sport is usually played indoors, but outdoor variants exist in the
forms of field handball and Czech handball (which were more common in the past)
and beach handball. The game is fast and high-scoring: professional teams now
typically score between 20 and 35 goals each, though lower scores were not
uncommon until a few decades ago. Body contact is permitted by the defenders
trying to stop the attackers from approaching the goal.
the most famous basketball players are: nicklas landin, julen aginagalde, Nikola
karabatic, andreas wolff
