Basketball
For one of my action activity, I joined a basketball team in our school. It started from only 6 members but at the moment having 13. Once in 2 weeks, there is a practice after school on Wednesdays. Being the seniors of the school, we had not many chances to exercise, thus I wanted to participate in the practices.
the activity is inside school grounds, but we also went outside school for practice matched with other schools. As I had continued to play, we became friends with other Basketball teams. I was completely new to this sport but my teammates were almost all experienced, so we were quite strong as a team, and the practices improved our combination and team work. As i played longer, I felt myself getting better, which was evident in the increase in minutes I had played in each match. It had increased my motivation to practice harder and provided me with a lot of joy. We didn't have the difficulties of paying for the court as we were using the school court, but we faced a difficulties in sharing the court with other grades.
This activity impacted me in a positive way. I gained new skills of basketball, communicating, and collaborating. Although at first I had difficulties such as not enough confidence and skills to play, and the balance between studies and sports, as time passed i was able to overcome those. As time passed, along with my time-management skills, my basketball skills had improved, and last but not the least, made more new friends, allowing me to realize the power and way of socializing. I would like to continue this even after CAS is all done. This activity will sure be useful in the future as the population of this sport worldwide is enormous, it is a sport that i can play in almost wherever i am and make new friends.
