Each country has got its national sport. There are huge amounts of football fans in lots of countries, some countries are keen on ice hockey. Lithuanians ate crazy about basketball - why? :) Maybe because most of us are tall enough to reach a basket :)

It is true that Lithuanians love basketball. We have got strong national teams such as "Kauno Žalgiris", "Lietuvos rytas" and some others. But there are other sports such as baseball or frisbee which are played with not less interest in Lithuania:)

Lithuanians have got a saying- basketball is our second religion. Most people are real fans of basketball. We have got well-equipped basketball courts next to our schools and kids like spending time playing basketball there.

Football comes first, Volleyball comes second. In recent years, the Bulgarian national volleyball team managed not only to reach the world elite, but also to maintain its reputation as a rival that is not to be underestimated.

Our national sport in Germany is football. That is no surprise since some of the best football teams in the world are from Germany. Also, handball is very popular here.
