Even though I never played sports during my school life, I believe that schools should organize sporting events. These events should be promoted at a larger scale. There are so many schools that have a perfect team and those reams represent their schools. They compete with others schools and this could be quite entertaining. Unfortunately, this is not the case in my country.

Sports is a good way to keep fit and also can be seen as an entertainment. So, I don't see anything wrong with schools organising sports events for their students because all work and no play makes Henry a dull boy.
 
I played football throughout my college and high school.

This was our football team during NYSC in Akwa Ibom State. I really enjoyed football so much growing up.

I was very active in playing soccer in high school. I made the school junior team in my first year in high school. Also made the school senior team in my first year in senior high.
 
I play volleyball in school and it's really make me feel so special when it's come to sports baseball and basketball are supplementary

It always feel good playing for your school. It kinda makes you become like a celebrity in school when you're so good at it.

How many goals did you score for your school team?
 
I played basketball when I was in school, I was in the school team. I also played badminton. I tried football as well but wasn't good at it so wasn't selected for school team.

Unfortunately, basketball is one of the sports I never get to give a try in order to know if I'm good or bad at it. Now, I'm not sure if I would do well at it because I've added much weight being 106kg.
 
I used to play football when I was in junior high. I wanted to play forward but the team always made be a goalkeeper. :D
As I grew older, I lost interest

Being a goalkeeper is a very big challenge for me because I have a problem with falling on the ground. This is why I have tried playing in the goalkeeper position.
 
In the UK, it's not quite like how playing sports is in America. I played soccer (football) mostly, and was a pretty good player. I had interest from the nearest two professional teams for me to join their youth system and in the second from the final year two Premier League teams expressed interest in writing. I loved playing Tennis, Table Tennis, Cricket and most sports but football was my favourite. Unfortunately, I suffered from a bad dislocation and have been diagnosed with EDS (hypermobility). I didn't have the belief in myself really, so I doubt I would have gone far and many people look at youngsters it doesn't mean much but there is that what if?
