My Favourite Sport

By Tanish Phaterpekar

Sports are important for us because they keep us healthy and fit. They also increase our stamina and give us more energy throughout the day. I have played basketball, football, volleyball, wall climbing, swimming, and many other sports. My favorite sport, though, is basketball, and I have been playing it for 4+ years (along with my brother). Basketball is my favorite sport because it involves running along the court for (almost) the whole match, cool passes, and I also heard that it increases your height a lot. The goal of this game is to score a basket in your opponent's hoop while defending your own. It is a team sport, and that makes it even more interesting to play as you rely on your teammates and they rely on you. But the best part is when you win the game and get a prize because your teammates

come running to you and shout "YESSS! You did it!!" I am glad that I chose this game because, as I enjoy playing it and no one forces me to, I also tend to play it a lot. My friends and I go to the basketball court every evening and play basketball for about 2 hours. This game is taught at my school, but I prefer doing it at SKP Campus because the coach over there is kind and she was the principal’s daughter in my mother’s school. She also got selected to be the head coach of the Indians Female Basketball team! I aim to be as good as (or better than) my coach. I know that this will take a lot of time, but I’m sure that if I keep practicing, I might be better than him one day.

Thank You!
