How I Got Started

Sports have influenced my life in a huge way. It has given me confidence, determination, focus, and attentiveness. The traits that will lead me to success. Sports have helped me in many ways, including, being a better student, more active, and keeping me physically fit. I enjoy playing sports very much and want to continue for a long time. I am very good at almost every sport I play which makes me believe that I am a true athlete. I never get tired of playing sports because they are very fun and give me something to do in my free time. Sports have been a huge part of my life and it will continue to be for a extremely long time.

I was not always obsessed with sports like I am today. I started to get into sports when I was about 11 years old in the fifth grade. It started when my parents forced me to play in an organized sports league. At first I was skeptical about playing a sport because I didn't know how to play basketball. That whole year I was the worst player on my team, but it was very fun after I started to understand the game more clearly. After the season was over I was so obsessed about basketball that I would practice almost everyday at the park. When a couple of months past my parents knew that I wanted to play this sport for a long time. So that Christmas they bought me a basketball hoop as a present and I was extremely happy. After numerous hours of practicing the next season finally arrived and I was ready. This time I was much better and was one of the best on my team. When I realized I had improved so much I was happy but I knew I needed to keep on getting better. I carried this motive for every sport I played and that's how I think I am so athletic today. Till this day I have that mind set of improving on every sport I play and I hope to continue to play the sports I love for a very long time.

The reason why I decided to write about what caused me to love sports so much is to help motivate people to do the same. Everyone should take risks, even though they may seem scary. But you never know if that risk can change your life forever. I don't know what I would be like today if I didn't take that chance to play sports for the first time. It was extremely hard but I enjoyed it very much. If you have something that you enjoy doing stick to it no matter how hard it may be, in the end it will all pay off if you really enjoy doing it. I know taking risks isn't that easy but life is nothing without risks. Taking that one chance can changed your life dramatically and will make you extremely happy. That one chance has helped me in a great way by making me the man I am today.

Football

Although football isn't my favorite sport, I still enjoy playing the very exciting game. Every time I step onto the field I get an adrenaline rush and I have to contribute to the team. It is amazing how one simple thing can lead to something amazing. Football is extremely hard and painful but it all pays off when you step on that field, smell the freshly cut grass, and look at the crowd and see all your peers cheering you on. I have only been playing football for one year and I still have a lot to learn but I am excited to find new ways of improving my game. I know it will take a long time to perfect everything I have learned during this past year, but I am looking forward to the challenge. Many people think that football is a dangerous sport but I disagree. In my opinion I think that football is one of the safest sports you can play. Everyone receives a lot of protection and support when playing football and will rarely receive serious injuries. Even though I have only played the sport for one year I am positive that it is extremely rare for someone to receive and injury. You may be hurt or sore after hard days of football but that happens with every sport. Football is a very fun sport to play and I believe that not enough people play. Everyone should stop criticizing the sport because I know those people have never attempted to play. The critics should stop watching this great sport and give it a try and I know once they attempt to play they will realize that football is safe, fun, and extremely exciting.

The reason why I decided to write about football is because I want to tell everyone how fun this sport really is. Many people criticize about football, saying that it is dangerous and dumb but I believe that you need a lot of knowledge and determination to play this sport. Its not always the biggest man that wins the game, it is sometimes the smartest team that wins. The trick of being a good football player is to not be afraid of pain and don't panic when you are faced with a tough task. I hope that what I have explained about football will change many minds of hypocrites that don't approve of the game. I know that I have only played football for one year but I think that it is very fun and more people should give it a try. I have enjoyed sharing my ideas about football and I hope that I have changed the minds of many people.
