Sample Answer
Dear Ravi,
I hope you are doing well. I’m writing to tell you about a sport I recently joined and to suggest that you consider taking it up as well, as I believe it would suit you perfectly.
I first heard about this sport, badminton, through a colleague at work who had been playing it regularly and spoke highly of its benefits. After hearing about it several times, I finally decided to give it a try.
I started playing about two months ago at a local sports complex near my home. I usually go in the evenings after work, and the sessions are well organised with proper coaching and facilities. Since joining, I have been playing three times a week, which has helped me stay active and energetic.
I genuinely think you would enjoy this sport because it is both physically engaging and mentally refreshing. It doesn’t require extreme fitness to begin with, and it’s a great way to reduce stress after a long day. Moreover, I know you enjoy competitive activities, and badminton offers just the right balance between fun and challenge.
I really hope you’ll consider joining me sometime. Let me know if you’d like more details, and we can even go together for a trial session.
Take care and write back soon.
Best regards,
Yadwinder
