Women's basketball

only six, I remember everything about you. I remember you loved basketball, I remember your smile when I made some stupid joke, I remember the way you treated me and how I looked at you. I looked at you as my role model. I always wanted to be like you. I still want to. My mom tells me all the time that I look like you. I don’t know if it makes her happy or sad. I know it makes me happy though. I am eleven years old now. I play basketball for the school just like you did! Mom comes to all my…

The game of volleyball was invented by William G. Morgan in 1895. All other materials were added, some created, and others improved to fit this newfound mixed sport of “don’t let the ball touch the ground”. The net was borrowed from tennis during the same year, the number of players reduced from the total that all could fit on the court, to nine, and finally to six. Basic rules were established from 1895 up until 1970 and are still subject to change depending on the school or association who…

Back in seventh grade I used to love playing basketball. I was one of the five players that were recognized. Not to sound full of myself (because I'm certainly not), but I was actually pretty good. I would always look forward to practices and games. Many parents came up to me and would tell me how well I played. All of the good things about basketball had vanished once my eighth grade season had started. I had a different coach than the year before. My new coach picked favorites and I was not…

in Europe and South America, and Basketball both are sports that are played in Olympic Events, and they also played in high schools and colleges. Physical body contact is a part of these two games. Although that they’re played in different ages and they’re for both genders, the way that each game is played makes them have different fan bases. They both have different popularity around the world, and that causes a difference in the finical power. Soccer and Basketball are both played in the…

older brother would be playing outside every day. He would be playing all the different sports like football, soccer, running, even basketball. He would be playing basketball the most also this is how my brother got me into playing the sport I love now. Around the age of six, my brother would always come up to me saying, “Arish let's go outside to play some basketball.” I would always say no because I wouldn’t like to do any outdoor activities. So I would stay inside just playing shooting games…

I had this friend named Anil John, he passed away on October 6, 2015, from a car accident. I'd say he was about 6'6" and played on the basketball team. He wasn't one of those kids that thought he was all tough because he was on the basketball team. He was one of the nicest kids to ever walk the halls of Islip high school in my opinion. It is a tragedy that he passed away so young, but I know that I will never forget the memories I made with him. He might have been in the grade above me, but…

consequence was when I quit playing basketball. Basketball has always been a big part of my life. Playing outside in the front yard or playing for my high school. I graduated from Clear Lake high in Lakeport, and played there for two years. I never thought there was other players in my grade that were better than me. There was never a thought in my mind that I couldn’t play at the next level. Since my freshman year I always…
