High School Basketball

Day 139 of My Italian Learning Journal*

_____________________

Our boys and girls basketball teams are doing well this year. Basketball games are fast and exciting. The time athletes devote to their sport is amazing -- hours and hours of drills and games, local and out-of-town. Plus the study time that has to be made up. Parents are a huge support, with fundraisers, chaperoning, and volunteer work. How physically fit these student-athletes become is impressive. Hopefully, these students will continue to maintain a habit of physical fitness beyond their high school days.

• Mi piace guardare i giochi di pallacanestro perché questi giochi sono frenetico ed eccitanti.
