Read the passage and answer the following questions. (2ms)
For many young people in Britain, sport is a popular part of school life, and being in one of the
school teams and playing in matches is very important. If someone is in a team, it means a lot of
extra practice and often spending a Saturday or Sunday away from home, as many matches are
played then.
It can also involve travelling to other towns to play against other school teams and then staying
on after the match for a meal or a drink. Sometimes parents, friends and other students will
travel with the team to support their own side.
When a school team wins a match, it is the whole school that feels proud, not only the players.
It can also mean that the school becomes well-known for being good at certain sports, and
students from that school may end up playing for national and international teams so that the
school has some really famous names associated with it!
