something new‚ to learn how to play basketball! We made that decision mainly because we wanted to do an activity together for the winter term‚ and seventh graders didn’t have the option of doing the winter school play. We were very hesitant; only one of us had any experience playing basketball‚ and we didn’t think it would be very fun to run up and down a court trying to get a ball in a hoop. Still we kept an open mind and began to learn how to play. Basketball was a challenge for us. We all had

The Boom of the Basketball I have always love to play basketball. The swish when you make it just right‚and the boom of the basketball hitting the floor “are sounds I love”. When I first started playing basketball‚ my mom and my couch Richard knew that I was expectational. I played with Richard for a few years‚ then one day he told us about this newspaper ad he saw for a team named “Eugene Fire”. My mom decided to check it out‚ so she called the coach‚ Jim. He said I probably

I have played basketball since the sixth grade. However‚ for the duration of my middle school years‚ I was repeatedly cut from the A team and I did not get the opportunity to play significant minutes in game until my eighth grade year. In many ways‚ that year was a turning point for my basketball career. Frustrated with being the only eighth-grader to be on the B team‚ I dedicated myself to improving as much as possible‚ both during and after the season. That year‚ I was most valuable player for

I have a passion for basketball. Basketball is my favorite sport. I’ve been playing organized basketball since I was four years old‚ at least as long as I can remember. Basketball is a very big important part of me. This is something that I am really good at and makes me very happy when I play. My mom supports me playing basketball very rarely. It seems like my mom doesn’t care but I think she does deep down inside. My mom wants me to focus more on school then basketball. Her motto is “business

game finding myself spacing off thinking about basketball. basketball is starting soon and i cant help thinking about getting to play varsity. I miss the smell of the gym right before a basketball game and the feel of the basketball grooves. I actually kind of miss the bad tasting water from the school water fountain. One thing that I miss the most about basketball is the feeling of trying your hardest and succeeding at it. I’ve been playing basketball since i was only 7 years old. I played with

Basketball is a very aggressive‚ fun‚ and intense sport that I like to play. It was created by James Naismith in 1861. He also designed the first football helmet. The first basketball game was played in 1891 at what is now Springfield College. My favorite position to play in the game is defense. I love to play defense because it’s so fun to block the other team’s shots and also I like stealing the ball from them and then scoring a layup. I also like to play offense because it’s so exciting when

Between 4th and 5th grade I joined a basketball team. I was in tryouts but I didn’t think I did so well. I ended up making the team though. Practices after practices‚ my first game took place. My friend John played basketball too; but we weren’t on the same team. It turns out we play each other for the first game. John said “do you want to ride to the courts with me?” I said “yea‚ what time do you want to meet me?” John asked “what time do you have to show up to the courts?” I replied “my coach

I had just gotten the basketball passed to me by one of my teammates. At that moment I decided to attempt making a shot. With the ball in my hand‚ I run into the key to make a basket. Instead the opponent’s centers try to block my shot‚ but I shoot before I crash into them. They were tall‚ one with white skin and was skinny‚ the other has light brown skin and was muscular. As I jumped up and released the ball‚ when I was coming down I see the basketball make it into the hoop. My teammate gives me
