Sam loved judo. He practiced every day. “I can do it!” he said with a big smile. Sam liked to learn new moves. His friends, Max, Leo, and Ben, loved judo too. They all practiced together.
One sunny day, they had a big game. “Let's have fun!” shouted Max. “Yes! Together!” cheered Leo. They were happy and excited.
But oh no! During the game, Ben fell. “I can't play,” he said sadly. Sam looked at his friends. “We need to help Ben!” he said.
“Let's cheer for him!” said Max. “Go, Ben! You can do it!” shouted Leo. They all clapped their hands. Ben smiled a little. “I'll try!” he said.
Sam had an idea. “I can take Ben's turn!” he said. “I will help us win!” The friends nodded. “Yes! Go, Sam!” they cheered.
Sam got on the mat. He remembered all the moves he learned. “I can do it!” he said again. He tried really hard. “One, two, three!” he counted. The friends cheered louder and louder.
“I did it!” Sam jumped with joy. “You are great!” shouted Max. “We did it together!” said Leo. Ben smiled big. “Thank you for helping me!” he said.
After the game, they all sat together. “Judo is fun!” said Sam. “And we are a team!” said Max. “Yes! Together, we can do anything!” cheered Leo.
They all laughed and hugged. Judo brought them joy. They learned to help each other. They learned to be a team. And that made them all very happy.
