rackets. The game takes place on a hard table divided by a net.

agility, coordination, and endurance. The movements involved in gymnastics contribute to
the development of the arms, legs, shoulders, back, chest, and abdominal muscle groups.

bowling could also refer to lawn bowls.

two (occasionally more) competitors or sparring partners, who attempt to
gain and maintain a superior position.

played on a course with an arranged progression of 18 holes, though recreational courses can
be smaller, often having nine holes.

include basic transport, a recreational activity, or a competitive winter sport. Many types of
competitive skiing events are recognized by the International Olympic Committee (IOC), and
the International Ski Federation (FIS).

body to move through water. The sport takes place in pools or open water
Track and field

running track and a grass field for the throwing and some of the jumping events.
Figure skating
Figure skating is a sport in which individuals, duos, or groups perform on figure
skates on ice. It was the first winter sport to be included in the Olympic Games, when it was

ladies' singles, pair skating, and ice dance.
