SWIMMING — it is the best way to get active in the water. Whether you swim just for fun or for sport, there’s plenty to do in the pool. For the hot days in summer, it’s difficult to play outside so swimming is the perfect sport to enjoy in the heat. Swimming also strengthens our core muscles and builds tenacity. It’s also easy to learn, so those of you who don’t know how to, now’s the time.

BASKETBALL — for children who are growing up fast, basketball is the best sport. It requires lots of activity such as running, jumping, intercepting, skipping and aiming to shoot. Through this sport, you can learn about defence mechanisms and avoiding offense. It’s the source to be active on summer days and enjoying playing with your friends.

CRICKET — cricket is not played in whole countries but it is having a great respect and also it is the most popular game in some countries, especially in our country. For playing cricket, you just require a bat and ball and some players. You can also play matches with neighbourhood and can go other places to compete with them. It is very easy to keep a dozen kids involved in this game. Then it is very interesting to play this game with friends and colleagues.

SURFING — this game is just for fun for those, who live near by the oceans and beaches so do surface that is there just for you. Surfing is a great sport for you to participate in. In this regard, your parents play a vital role whether they allow you or not. If parents themselves would be involved, then the fun will double. Nor you have to be worried neither your parents because there are guard and trainer to protect the children. You will learn to surf the water and you will know, how of surfing like which caves to catch and which to avoid.

BIKING — the summer is a great time to take your bikes and go for a ride. But in the evening time, when the sun has set and the cool breeze is blowing, riding a bike can seem better than any sport in the world. It is a very interesting sport, which you play for fun or professional. Your bike is ready to be used for the summer vacation to make the holidays pleasant.

RUGBY — this sport is full of enjoyment and enjoyed by those who really understand its value. It can be played, where an open ground and a team is. Rugby is somehow tough but it teaches you about the sport sans the violence. It also teaches you how to tackling and move quickly in order to avoid injuries. If you are boisterous, you will surely not face any kind of difficulties during the rugby. Search for the opportunities to improve your ball abilities in an engaging group play environment in this world famous game.

TENNIS — tennis is a game which can be played in any season, if you have an indoors court near you. But it is better to play outside, if you can find some friendly competition. As tennis camps are best to make yourself active, strong and health through a sport. It helps you to build stamina and concentration. You can learn new tips and moves and make friends all in the span of a lazy summer. It means you have skill to start having fun right from their first activity.

ATHLETICS — do you love running and have too much energy to burn? Running, pole vaulting, jumping all these things, you love to do in a sport. Then what is required? Athletic camps enable one to participate safely with trainers. It will modify to suit the ages and abilities of your one.

VOLLEYBALL — again, it is that kind of sport, which requires very less rules and even fewer objects for you to play. Simply it is played by two teams and I know you like this game. The rules are simple that prop up a net in the middle of spacious yard and pass the large volleyball from one side to other without dropping it. But the more fun is in beach volleyball. It is played in the sand of the beach where it is very interesting to jump. Less risk is there of serious injuries by falling down on the sand. So don’t be worry about yourself and enjoy the summer vacations.

FOOTBALL — football is the most popular game in the world and being played, almost in all countries. So definitely football camps spring up in every corner of your neighbourhood. You cannot go against it. Football is highly recommended as it improves co-ordination, control skill and sense of camaraderie. You have to be involved in this health sport and let yourself play on the grassy ‘battlefield’.

I suggest those children, who are bored indoors, to try out these sports for enjoyment. Summer vacations are just for you to enjoy. I hope that you’ll try these games out for a better health. Of course, at the end of the day, these are only my suggestions. There are sports too which you can choose from and enjoy playing with your friends and family.
