Voluntary and Involuntary Sportsmeet Contributions

This January, I was in the tenth grade, when our Head informed that we couldn't contribute to sports meet next year, and we all did our best this year. I volunteered for two, signing up for badminton and long jump then they asked me to have a go at TT too. I didn't know anything about table tennis But I said yes anyway. I went for badminton, (I was reserve) I floated above the sand pit, But stopped right there, not reaching the top three. What about my Table Tennis? Please don't ask: I was so bad that I couldn't get my serve through, and my opponent donated me some marks. ("TT is like badminton" - you liar!) So that was how I played all my sports, but I couldn't do anymore. I had keep the big day free, to play my trumpet - and also to stand straight until the whole thing ends. * based on how I contributed to the sportsmeet this year. I didn't gain any placement or certificate, but I'm happy because our house turned out to be the first, and I felt proud when I played the fanfare as a player in our brassband. note: almost everything in this is consisting of true incidents.
