Most of us went
through to the point that we ignored those people who were calling us over the
phone. There were the times that we avoided to answer it. Do we need to
disregard those calling us? In the field of basketball, it should not be that
way it used to be. Be attentive to the call of referee, coach for instruction
and screams of the supportive crowd. Because of basketball, many people are
going to call you.
Just a little
information about basketball. It was estimated that the first basketball game
held in 1892 that played for about 30 minutes. Still, there were no ball for
this sports at the time so people used soccer ball for the mean time and not
too long it changed. In 1949, National Basketball Association was established
by the joint forces of NBL (National Basketball League) and BAA (Basketball
Association of America). Michael Jordan was considered the legendary basketball
player with a record of 5987 points in his career. Because of continuous
growing of this game before NBA, it was officially became sports in Olympic
game at Berlin, Germany in 1936.
In Asia, it is
considered that PBA or Philippine Basketball Association is the first
professional basketball league established in 1979. This is the second
professional league next to NBA. But before the foundation of PBA, the first
world basketball championship held in Asia is FIBA World Championship in 1978.
During our
childhood, we are given a basketball ring and small ball as a toy. I don’t even
remember when it started but when we touched it we wanted to play it. We felt
an unexplained happiness. So our friends invited us to join them, to showcase
and keep pace to them in this sports. Because it is joyful to with them
fighting to win.
How could you
forget the times you were playing basketball as a beginner? The time when your
finger suddenly injured at the middle of the game. When it done, you will go back to your house.
You bite your lips because of the pain
it gave. So you got many injuries because of the ball when it hit you in your
face, fingers and back. Wearing a slippers or sandals, you exerted full
strength but accidentally slipped and tripped. Therefore you got scratches and
wounds when you fell. So you ask yourself if you are going to play it again?
There are also
scenarios that programs about basketball are going to occur. Like foundation
day of the company, intramurals of school and community leagues. You want to
join so you will seek and ask your friends. But there is small problem. Your
team need a jersey. What is the design of jersey and color it appears? But
forget about that, money is not important here. Because the real theme and
spirit of the event is loving what you are doing when your team is playing
altogether.
