A new hobby

I saw some badminton on TV and found it quite             INTEREST, so I thought I'd see if there was a club or             ASSOCIATE in my area. I looked everywhere but,               FORTUNE, the nearest club was 80 kilometres away. So without any           KNOW, I decided to form my own club. It was very hard in the beginning - I didn't have any           EQUIP and I had to convince a few people that it was an           ENJOY way to keep fit. I organized a small             COMPETE, which was a lot of fun, and things started to grow from there. Now we've got a full-time         TRAIN and our           OPPOSE come from all over the country. One of our members was even a bronze           _ MEDAL in the national championship!
