1. Penza Is a City of Sport.
There are many opportunities for
doing sports in my town. We have a
lot of stadiums, sports grounds,
swimming pools, soccer fields,
gyms, sports clubs and centres
available. The biggest sports
complexes are: “Olympia "," Rubin​",
"Burtassy", "Diesel-Arena."
Anyone can choose the number of
sports according to his/her taste.

2. Sport makes people
healthy, more organized and
disciplined. It helps them to
keep fit. It is hard to imagine
the life of my hometown
without sport.
For the people living in
Penza sport means the joy of
exercising, being healthy,
being together with likeminded people. Some
people exercise to improve
their health, some do it
professionally.

3. Such sports as rollerblading, biking,
skateboarding, swimming, karate,
soccer, gymnastics, hockey, tennis are
very popular among Penza teenagers
today. Our young people have
succeeded in swimming, diving and
gymnastics. Many of them are the
members of the national teams and
participate in international
competitions winning medals in top
ones.

4. One of those who we are proud of
is Anastasia Zueva.
She is a swimmer, specializing in
the backstroke swimming, the 2011
World Champion, three-time Vice
Champion of the World 2009, 2011;
three-times European champion
and multiple Russian champion; the
participant of the 2008 Olympic
Games in Beijing, the silver medalist
of the 2009 World Championship in
Rome, the winner of the 2011 World
Championship in Shanghai. The
silver medalist at the 2012 Olympics
in London.

5. Anastasia Zueva is a great example to all of us. Everybody
should strive for something and achieve the goals.
As for me, I ‘m not good at swimming, but I go in for running
and I’m a member of my school team which is the best in my
town.

6. Jogging is also one of the most popular sports in my
town. Both old and young people are fond of doing it in
the morning. The most popular place for sport-lovers is
called "The Olympic Alley". In winter Penza citizens
prefer skiing in the forest. Jogging and skiing have
become favourite family pastimes.

7. I'm proud of my town and the people living in it!.
