A Sport I Want to Try

Sports is enjoyed or played by everyone for entertainment. There is baseball, soccer, and many other sports. Yet, the thing is, I usually do not play anysports.

So, this year, I will try a well known sport: basketball. During my school year, the coach made us play this sport which gave me a bad feeling. It made me feel scared. Every time someone shoots a ball next to me, I often fear a basketball will come slamming into my face.

Once, my worst nightmare came true. There was a bully in my class that usually yells at everyone, and I mean everyone. That One time, when I was shooting a ball, I missed since it was my first time, and the bully started yelled “HA HA.” So, when he missed, I did the exact same thing to him.

Instead of yelling back, he slammed the ball straight into my left shoulder. The day after that, basketball became my worst fear. Even to this day, I still feel scared about it. The bully always pretends that he is the best basketball player.

I want to get better at this sport because I want to show the bully that he is not the best. It matters to me because he has been bullying countless people by saying they were way too short to even play basketball. Because of that, I want to prove to everyone that he is not the best. Then, I will use that as an advantage so that he can not be mean to anyone else.
