text: When you play sports you are on a team with people that you may not know or people that you normally wouldn't talk to but through playing with them you can become friends. Sports can be a fun way to get exercise for instance if you join a basketball team you learn to play the game at the same time as having fun with friends and traveling to play other teams. There are a lot of sports to chose from which means that there is something for everyone to play and enjoy. Sports are just one of the activities that help you make friends and get good exercise.
