My name is Andrea, I am 17 years old and I have always studied on A.P.Ch school. When I was a kid the only physical activity I used to do was playing with my friends; running, jumping the rope or the rubber band.
On our school, every year, takes place the Students Olympics; they consist in: by grades we form a team, chose an uniform, a team name with the distinctive colors and logotype, then we compete with the other grades until we have a champion which is the one that wins more matches, the bad thing was that we only got basketball and soccer as sports; I think the school should have had more options to offer us, nowadays, they have add ecuavolley too, but only for the high school. In the other hand, the good thing is that girls and boys can participate in both sports, basketball and soccer because ecuavolley is relative new and I think girls are not interested enough on it yet, but I hope in the future they have an incursion into it too.
Some pictures I have got from me and my teams are, the first one when I was on second grade
I can’t remember the teams name or if we won, I can’t remember much from that school year (1998-1999), not even the teachers name, but is really funny to see all my friends and notice that we have grow up and realize that we almost end with high school.

These are 2001 school year and team pictures, we were called the snoopy champions or something like that, it was on fifth grade. I am the tall girl from the picture, that’s why I started to practice and train basketball as my sport. I was not very good at it but at least I formed part from the school’s basket selection. It was the only sport I practice during the elementary school.
This is the six grade team, the CONDOR SATINADORES. It was a really weird and funny name but we chase it because we got a new English teacher called Pablo, we appreciated him a lot; he was part of a military group called the condor satinadores, they were rude, brave and strong so that’s why our name, the logotype was a big and a muscular condor.
This is the pictures that I like the most, because there are almost all my actual friends; Marcela, Anita, Gaby, Michelle, Alejo, Pablo, Michu. By that time I was still practicing basketball.

The elementary school was finished, and on high school, basket wasn’t attractive for me anymore, I was still playing it but I stopped training. The cheerleading replaced it, I wanted to try new things and I thought it was a good option. The worst part was the Saturdays practice at 7 in the morning but the blue uniforms we had were beautiful. We had some presentations on the school and on a parade.
Cheerleading was over on second course for me, and I didn’t practice any sport on third course, but in fourth course I joined the new girl’s soccer team. We had some tournaments with other schools in which we didn’t t have a great participation. In fifth course the tournament took part on our school and on our fields so we did it better than the last year. That same year I entered to a gym where I had a great time and made a lot of friends I stayed there for almost 7 months but I am planning to return on November, because I really miss the exercise, I have not done any activity for a month and I am feeling it on my weight and in the fact I get tired faster than ever.
