Last weekend i discovered a totally new sport &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Badminton\" target=\"_blank\">badminton<\/a>!\u00a0The name sounds a bit like a chewing gum of some sorts, but it&#8217;s actually quite fun! It&#8217;s played with rackets and it looks almost like tennis. Or volleyball.. So, i went to check out my friends playing badminton at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.firmasport.ee\" target=\"_blank\">Firmasport<\/a> games. It&#8217;s sort of like Olympics, but for my friends.\u00a0In fact, the tournament was called Golden Ball and there were many other ball games too, it seems. And we got to travel to Tartu, which was gr8!<\/p>\n<p>As it turns out, badminton is lots of fun, especially to watch! My favorite teams were <a href=\"http:\/\/www.firmasport.ee\/?tag=eesti-post\" target=\"_blank\">Eesti Post<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.firmasport.ee\/?tag=swedbank\" target=\"_blank\">Swedbank<\/a>, if u ask me. Why? Because their orange costumes &#8211; my favorite color, jei! So, here are a few fotografs of people playing. See if u can spot me on all fotografs, hehe!
