My Extracurricular activity is basketball. Basketball has played an important part in my life so far. It is something that I can always go do and enjoy in my free time. Right now, I’m on the Grade 9 Boys basketball team at Heritage Woods Secondary School. I know a lot of people on this team and love to play and hangout with them. I’m hoping that our team will do well this year. I’ve been playing basketball since grade 2 where I started in a club called VSC or Vancouver Sports club. My first ever basketball game I watched came at the age of 6 months old. I watched the Basketball Highschool Provincials as my dad was the coach of the Gleneagle Talons and I came to support them in between my diaper changing and bottle feeding. Right now my position is the 4 or the Power forward its called. Though that’s my position at the moment, I have played all over the court. Sometimes I’m a Point Guard and sometimes I’m a big man. It all depends on the game. I got involved in basketball from a young age because my dad was a coach, but now its much more than that. I love to play the game no matter who I’m playing with. No matter if its a game of pick up in the gym, or a playoff game with my Club team, basketball is always enjoyable. Like I said at the start, basketball holds a place near and dear to my heart and it will stay like that forever.

As I said in my paragraph before but I play for my school’s grade 9 team. I also play for a club called Swish. I have played for Tri City and other clubs in the past as well. I played Tri City rep, and right now I play for Swish. My main priority is my high school team that practices around 4 times a week while my Swish team plays 1 once a week. Basketball is my main sport that I play 5 times a week. I enjoy basketball for many reasons. The main one is because it is fun. I like to play with my friends and family. I forget all my problems or homework while I’m playing basketball and just think about the game. That is another reason I love basketball.

Finally, I get inspired to play basketball from a variety of people. The first person is my dad. he got me into playing basketball from a young age so I kept playing when I got older. Another inspiration is watching the NBA. I love watching the pro’s do some of the moves that I do and I watch them do it 100 times better than me and that just makes me want to get better at that move.
