Before the Game

Draft The final game before the championship. We had been training for a month now and the gruesome work had finally paid off. We were more than ready to march on the field and take the championship. We won our league division and if we won the next game we play then we were headed to the national championship. Our team had never won the championship and we really wanted to win it. In the locker room before the game our coach emphatically said, “ You boys play like it is the last game of your career

and they made sure that I knew that good things come to people who work hard and remain selfless. To me this is a very important part of the person I am today, and the older I become, the more I realize that not everyone was raised to put in work before expecting rewards. This shows constantly in high school through sports. There are always a couple of people on a team who believe that they deserve a spot on the team, or they deserve the all conference award, or that they deserved to have a starting

The Life of Extracurriculars Have you ever felt like that one kid who just doesn’t do anything? The kid that was in just one extracurricular and a lame one at that. Well, that was me until fifth grade. I joined girl scouts when I was in kindergarten. I enjoyed it and made new friends, but suddenly, our leaders kept leaving. We got new leaders yearly until Katie's mom decided to stick with us. I had been liking it so far, but then in fifth grade, everything changed. When I was in fifth grade, I wasn’t

them. The first game couldn’t come fast enough but then the games couldn’t go by slow enough and that’s where we are today. “The days go by slow but the years go by faster than they should.” When I’m on the field, my personality goes beyond me, it’s almost like I have no control over what I do and sometimes what I say. I get a full dose of adrenaline during the game, which I’m very addicted to the adrenaline, that is what keeps me going and excited for the next opportunity, moment, game, etc. After

Right before the basketball game I was really nervous.I kept on missing my shots.And I kept on telling my friends that I was nervous. When the game started I was still nervous then I started to play I was not nervous anymore by the crowd and I said to myself, “I’m going to do good”. Right in the middle of the game I got two steels and I said to myself “yay”.Then we started loosing and I was like “NO”.So when the next quarter started I got sent out the whole game.And then the buzzer went off. Right

Before the 1968 Olympics, the world was in chaos. Countries had internal and external problems that were carried on to the Olympic stage. Issues like the Cold War, South Africa apartheid, and the Civil Rights movement took part in forming the games and taking the stage. However, the host of the Olympics, Mexico, was in for a rude awakening. First, they had to prove to the world that they were capable of hosting the games. Second, they had to handle the worlds issues and their own too. Mexico’s problems

Video games are now more popular than ever before. Video games have been a popular form of entertainment in the lives of children and adults alike. However, these games have become more and more violent and aggressive in nature over the past couple of years. This is mainly because of the great technological leaps that video games have had over the past 30 years. As the complexity of video games progressed as did the graphics. This led to more realistic video games and more graphic intensive games

what do you eat before and on game day? What you eat before and on game day has a significant impact on your performance. For example, if you eat a very large meal right before a game, your body will be using energy to digest that food rather than using that energy for your muscles. If you want to perform to your fullest potential, you should follow this advice. On game day, an athlete should have a meal 2-4 hours before the game, eat some protein, and eat many carbs.

you in response to your article that stated “at public universities, organized team prayer before and after game violates the separation of church and state and should not be allowed, although private and devotionals are permissible.” I think it is important to go back to the history of the law and how it relates to today’s society before we distinguish whether or not prayer should be allowed in sport. Before the 1980’s athletes rarely ever discussed their beliefs or prayed during sport participation

James’s NBA career, before every game started, he would go to the scores table, grab some chalk, and throw it into the air with both hands. Everyone has a pre game routine whether it is a crazy chalk toss like LeBron, a handshake with a teammate, or a song to listen to. Pre game routines are weird human behaviors, and we all have them for our own reasons. The big reasons that we have pre game rituals are to get hyped up before the game, and to feel comfortable going into the game. Getting hyped up
