Last week I participated in a badminton championship for SMP students carried out I Gedung Juang. It was held to commemorate the 61st anniversary of our independent day. My friends and I went to the hall by car because it’s far from our school.
When we arrived there we were welcomed by the committee . The told us to get in the big hall where the championship was carried out. There were many other participants from other school waiting at the hall. They came from many different SMPs in Nganjuk.
The first match was single for woman. My friend Susana took part this event for representing our beloved school SMP 1 Kertosono. She played against the player from SMP 2 Nganjuk namely Lestari. Susan could defeat her very easily so she got the chance for the next turn in the semi final match.
Later it was my turn to struggle against the player from SMP 1 Nganjuk for man single event. I was very surprised to find that my opponent was Tri Haryanto. He was the first winner of badminton championship for SMP level last year. Firstly, I could not play well because I was nervous. Then all my friends supported me by cheering so hard for me. Although it was not so easy and spent a lot of energy, I could defeat him at last. So, I also had a chance for the next turn in the semi final match.
It was the first time I had taken part in a badminton championship. I was so happy although I was not the winner yet.
