PRESENTATION:
Hello, everyone. My name is Rodrigo David Flores Huamancondor, and I'm
presenting my assignment for week 15, titled “A not very common sport in Peru”.
My Dialogue
Rodrigo: Hey David! Yeah, it's a challenging sport mostly played in colder regions like
North America and Europe. It kicked off in the late 19th century, especially in Canada.
Rodrigo: Six players on the ice: three forwards, two defensemen, and a goalie.
Rodrigo: You score by putting the puck into the opponent's goal.
Rodrigo: Oh, lacrosse is a fascinating sport played a lot in North America, particularly in
the U.S. and Canada. It has indigenous roots and got formalized in the 17th century.
Rodrigo: Ten players on the field: three attackers, three midfielders, three defensemen,
and a goalie.
David: Got it. Why do you think these sports aren't very common in Peru?
Rodrigo: I reckon the warm climate and cultural factors make it hard for these cold-weather
sports to catch on here.
