I joined basketball club at the beginning of the first term. At first, we did not play basketball, instead we always ran. We could choose two days to run in each week. Every time, we should run a long distance. I always felt tried and thirsty after each practice. I did not know why we should do this, but I always tried my best to do. A month later, we started our practices with basketballs, like some actions’ practices.
I learnt a lot during this activity, not only new basketball skills, but also something about myself. In the everyday life, maybe I can do things successful and without other people's help, but during the activity I knew I can not do things perfect only by myself as an athlete. Playing a nice basketball game needs all the members' effort. After the activity I began to try to work with others and I found that made me work more easily.
I was a person who did not know how to work with other people and the importance of working with other people before. I liked to work and solve problems on my own. I thought I was not helpful, out-going and generous before. I did not like to talk to other people. During the process, I understood that more people have more power than only one person. Our group member worked together to improve ourselves. We helped each other that made things easier. I became a member of them, too. If I have problems, I would ask other group members to help me. We worked and solved problems together. After the process, I think I am easy-going and kind now. I also have many friends now, too. I become more active and lively. I like to work together with others better than working on my own.
We joined a basketball game called GCA keen beaver basketball championship. We played with HIS and Jiaxing GCA. When we played with HIS, we all felt hard. We did not know our group members very well, even did not know each other’s name. We did not have any cooperative experience and consciousness. Grade 10 students got the more reflection about this serious problem. Although we had more people than HIS, we failed. We failed not only because they were stronger than us, but also because we had less organization than them. We did not cooperate very well. When I was in the game, I did not know where should I go and do. After that we all know our problem, but it is hard to solve this in a very short time. Create cooperation needs time. In that afternoon, we did much more better work than before. We defeated Jiaxing GCA. Through the game we know the importance of cooperation. We also know the responsibility to make the game wonderful and fair. We also have the responsibility to show GCA students’ personality and spirit to other people. In the later training, we all not only practiced skills, but also practiced our cooperation. This activity was good for heath. It could help me made my life richer and improved my willpower.
The activity matches my personal fitness goals. After the activity, my mother told me that I ate more food than before and I also felt that I slept better. I think my lifestyle should be positive and healthy. We should do warm-up exercise before playing basketball. It can prevent unnecessary harm, such as sprains. Do not play it for a long time if you do not often play it. I think the clubs and activities I join are too less. In the future, I will join more clubs and activities.
