My favorite sport

Some people thinks that it is not a sport, but yes, it is, i'm talking about bowling. I've been practicing bowling since I was 6 years old. I started playing ocassionaly with my dad, because he is also a bowler and I used to go to the competitions to watch him play.

I started having very good results since I started to play and also I began to improve rapidly, of course with a lot of practice, in fact I remember that during a period of time I used to play bowling everyday, literally.

When I was about 12 years old I played my first National Olympiad with good results. Then I continue participating in different competitions in and out of town. When I was 15 years old, actually 2 days after my birthday, I made my first perfect game, that means 12 strikes followed or 300 points on a game, something very, very hard to do, you need years of practice and some luck, because there is a lot of very good bowlers with years of practice and without perfect game.

Nowday I still playing bowling but just 2 or 3 times a week in different leagues. As a curiosity, in 2008 here in Hermosillo took out the bowling world cup with players from a lot of different countries and actually I was there as staff, a very nice experience.
