Basketball Training
In Scoil Lorcáin, there is a basketball team.Every Monday from 2.30 to 3.30 we train.Ms Torpey is our trainer.We usually start off with a few stretches, then a lap around the court.After that there is a practice match.I enjoy basketball because it is athletic.It's fun and most of all, I really enjoy playing it.Basketball is a great sport and you learn something new everyday.
