The Most Popular Sport in the School
Basketball is definitely the most popular sport in our school. Every break, its courts are packed—students rush for spots, and spectators cheer loudly. After school, the courts stay busy till dusk.
Two reasons make it loved. It’s easy to play with just a ball and hoop, letting friends join casually. Also, it builds teamwork, fitting our young spirits.
We’re lucky to have Coach Li, who is patient and explains tricky moves clearly. With his help, many improve fast. No wonder basketball wins our hearts!
