【看CP學英文】談到自行車運動，一定會想到越野、公路單車賽，許多人或許不知道自行車也能踢足球。
When it comes to cycling you might think of off-road and road cycling first yet you might not know that you can also play soccer with your bicycles.
自行車足球擁有超過100年歷史，起源於德國，車球玩家必須隨時在特製單車上，身體部位不得觸地。香港單車足球隊教練鄭富慈解釋道，隊員必須利用他們的身體力量來擊球，手和腳只能用來操控單車。
“Cycle ball” which originated in Germany has a history of over 100 years. In a cycle ball game plaxyers must be on a fixed gear bike and keep their bodies off the ground.
Chen Fu-chi coach of the HK cycle ball team said that the plaxyers can only use their hands and feet to control their bike.
他說，約兩公尺半圓弧狀禁區內，隊員可以用手來擋球 (類似守門員)，若離開禁區就不能用手碰球。
But within the two-meter semicircle penalty area a plaxyer can use his hands to catch the ball (like a goalkeeper) he said adding that If a plaxyer leaves the area he can’t touch the ball.
車球場地為11m x 14m大，球門為2m x 2m，雙方隊員各兩位，比賽時間為全場14分鐘，每半場7分鐘。
The court is 11m x 14m in size while the goal is 2m x 2m. Two plaxyers from each team and a game last for 14 minutes with two 7-minutes halves.
擁有多年經驗的鄭富慈表示，「車球看起來很簡單，但事實上每個動作都經過很多訓練。」他表示，往年通常有多達20個人申請參加訓練，而香港的職業車球隊擁有超過12位隊員。
“It looks easy but every move takes a lot of practice” Cheng said adding that there are usually 20 people enrolled in our training while the professional team in Hong Kong has more than a dozen plaxyers.
