I first played basketball when I was 8. And I really love it. Basketball is my first sport, many people admire the way I play but now that I am a college student I already stopped because of the busy schedule that is the reason why I am not that fit anymore and I feel really weak because I don't have time to play the game that will exercise my body to be physically fit.

I was about 12 already, basketball did not really excite me at first but when I started playing it I fell in love with it. I even skipped school sometimes just to play the game I am so crazy about.

When I first played basketball I was only 12 years old.But at that time I just played for fun.It was for my inter-class matches in my school.But after that seeing my performance in the match my Physical Trainer teacher told me to practice Basketball daily.Since the I used to play Basketball daily for around 3 hours.This is great game and I just love it....

I started playing basketball when I was 14. I'm now 16 , so I've been playing for 2 years. I'm planning on getting on two teams. I am also being trained by a professional trainer that has good connections to many colleges. Hopefully my dream can come true and I can find seasonal work overseas.
