FIFA World Cup
The FIFA World Cup, often simply called the World Cup, is an international association football competition contested by the senior men’s national teams of the members of the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), the sport’s global governing body. The championship has been awarded every four years since the inaugural tournament in 1930, except in 1942 and 1946 when it was not held because of the Second World War. The current champion is France, which won its second title at the 2018 tournament in Russia.
Tour de France
The Tour de France is an annual road cycling race held in France. Established in 1903, it is the most prestigious and one of the oldest bicycle races in the world. It has been described as “the world’s toughest sporting event” and “a feat of endurance almost without equal”.
Fall
It’s finally Fall! This is the best season of the year because of all the great food, holidays, and activities. Fall starts in September and ends in November. In Fall, the leaves change color and fall off the trees. It gets colder outside, so people start to wear sweaters and jackets.
NFL
The National Football League (NFL) is a professional American football league consisting of 32 teams, divided equally between the National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC). The NFL is one of the four major professional sports leagues in North America, and the highest professional level of American football in the world.

World Series
The World Series is the annual championship series of Major League Baseball (MLB) in North America, contested since 1903 between the American League (AL) champion team and the National League (NL) champion team. The winner of the World Series championship is determined through a best-of-seven playoff, and the winning team is awarded the Commissioner’s Trophy. As the series is played during the fall season in North America, it is sometimes referred to as the Fall Classic.
