Henry - CommonWealth Games

The Commonwealth Games often referred as the ‘friendly games’, are a sporting event held every four years. There are 53 members of countries of the commonwealth.

There are 21 sports and 272 commonwealth events this year.  The first Commonwealth Games were held in Hamilton Canada in 1930. In 1942 till 1946, The Commonwealth Games were cancelled due to the WW2. If a country wants to host the commonwealth games, they will need to bid to win over for their country to host it.

The athletes are chosen because they are the best of their country and will compete against other countries. My favourite sport in the commonwealth games is the weight lifting because I love how they're so tough and they lift those heavy things. My favourite athlete is Usain Bolt because hes the fastest man on earth. HenryN Signing Out !
