Basketball Is A Excellent Sport!

Basketball ( Pāhikitepōro ) is an excellent sport


Have you ever played basketball? Well I have. I believe that we should get everyone playing basketball. It is a great sport and it is fun and energizing. If you try it, you might like it and recommend it to others, which in my opinion is great! These are four reasons to play basketball.

Fitness/health

Firstly, I think people who play basketball will have great health. People who play have fun being fit and healthy because you’re doing it in a fun way. You might have a healthy diet so you can be healthy while playing basketball.

Playing as a team

Secondly, you will become a good team player. If you play you will very likely develop great sportsmanship. You will learn that sometimes you win and sometimes you lose and that you have to accept that. When you play basketball you will get used to losing because that is a part of sport that you just have to deal with. You will learn that you might be in a team with strangers but you will still have fun. You’ll learn to support one another as a team. In conclusion, I think playing basketball will help you learn how to play as a team.

Traveling

If you play basketball you will get to travel either around the country or around the world to go to  games and tournaments. If you do travel around the world you will see and experience amazing places.The more you travel the more people will notice you and you are very likely to become famous! If you play basketball you will meet new, amazing and talented people and they might even become your friends. I think you will make and get new, great friends when you play basketball and you’ll be given opportunities to travel.

Career

If you practise basketball and get good enough you could get into a really good and high up team like the Tall Blacks or the L.A Lakers. Also if you have basketball as your career you can get paid lots of money. Your career will keep you very fit. You will have fun doing your career instead of a boring job like a banker or consultant. This is why I think having a basketball career is great.



Furthermore, I think you should play basketball because you will have great fitness and health, you will learn how to play as a team, you will get to travel and you might choose basketball as your career. So why not give it a go? If you get the chance to play basketball, try it!
