Sports is a field I never ventured in. I do some exercise now and then and I love reading about physical fitness. But I’m no physical fitness buff.

 
Even writing about sports is something I shy away from. I always believe sports writing is a special way of writing that I have not mastered.

 
But here I am – covering the Private Schools Athletic Association national games in Lingayen.  I argued and argued with my bureau chief about the coverage of the games. But he was adamant. He has that much faith in me. Bless him.

 
So instead of writing about nature and environment and everything nice, I will be writing about sports events this week – you know, athletics, swimming, basketball, badminton, the likes.

 
These stories may or may not be posted here. It all depends, really, Depends on what?  I don’t know. All I know is as of now, I’m  trying to master the art of sports writing.
