What other sports are as popular as football in China?
Useful Sample
Table tennis is very popular in China for the following reasons. Firstly, table tennis only needs a big table. Compared to basketball, baseball and football, it takes up a much smaller space. Secondly, it is a safer sport compared to others which may involve physical contact between players. It’s convenient for schools to organise such exercise for PE classes. Thirdly, it’s a very simple game to play and both boys and girls can handle it quite well.
