The 11-year-old table tennis star!
This week the Commonwealth Games are on in Australia
This week the Commonwealth Games are on in The Gold Coast in Australia!
The Commonwealth Games are for countries in The Commonwealth – a group of countries that were part of the UK many years ago and still have the Queen of England.
The Games are every four years. There are 22 sports like swimming, basketball, cycling and running. This year they are in The Gold Coast in Australia, a city famous for its beautiful beaches!
There are 6,000 athletes from 71 countries like the UK, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa.
Anna, 11 years old, is a table tennis player from Wales. She is the youngest athlete at the Games in 2018. She started playing when she was five years old and practises for three hours every day after school.
Anna might soon become a world table tennis champion, but she is still a high school student and her teachers say don’t forget to finish your homework at the Commonwealth games!

I love sport. My favourite sport is soccer. I play soccer, handball, basketball, I ride a bike and play volleyball. I snowboard in winter and I go swimming. So I am quite sporty. Of course I watch sport on TV too. I watch soccer when there are some important games. Cristiano Ronaldo is my favourite sports star because he is sporty and he is the best and he is nice and he never gives up. I am going to watch Football World Cup 2018 in Russia and I hope Poland will get to the finals. In our team we've got Robert Lewandowski and he is the best footballer in Poland and he has a lot of experience.

I like sport. I do sport five times a week. I love horse riding. I stared horse riding when I was eight. I have horse riding lessons four times a week, sometimes more often. Last weekend I had a competition - dressage and I won the first place. I am soo happy and my parents are proud. I wasn't stressed because I love it. I watched FEI Dressage World Cup Grand Prix Final a few weeks ago on TV. It was amazing.
