Personal Narrative: My Year Of Playing Basketball

“Hey remember that one time” ---Wait you weren’t there so how do you know my times in basketball , well I’m gonna tell you about the times I’ve had throughout my year of basketball. First thing first, I didn 't want to play basketball in the first place , neither did my parents want me to and I surely didn’t know how to play. Until this guy named John who was the girl 's basketball coach for Strain- Japan School came along. John standed and asked, “ Would you like to play basketball?”, I said , “ Well I’ve never played before and I have to make sure that my parents are ok with it.” So we were at a school event anyway, so John asked them and my father at first said no. But sooner or later he finally said yes. John wanted me to play

Well, here’s a story that can go with that , one time when we were doing down and backs using these shirts to slide on the floor to do some kind of bear crawl and what happened was that I wasn’t looking up and I collided with one of the girls on the team and I hit my head on the white- speckled tile floor.

So what like any other person tries to do is get the ball, but the part of that was there was a door with a doorknob, so when I knocked the ball in I hit my back where my kidney is, on the doorknob which was very painful. The funny part is the next game I did the exact same thing again. If you don 't know yet I’m kind of a clumsy person.

Throughout those years of basketball I’ve always been called Z which I got that nickname from my coaches John and Randy. It was just shorted for Zariah so my coaches didn’t have to yell my full name, Z was my name to them. I will still have that nickname throughout my years of sports. My years at Strain - Japan has many memories that I will cherish for a long time.

Now I’ve only played one year in high school so far and it 's been a great experience to learn about what mistakes I made, the new people that I have met and many new memories that I will cherish with my
