text: In Middle School, if you are talented on a sport, you can tryout in High School, and if your good enough, you can make it on the team. You can get a scholarship that can save you thousands of dollars when your going to collage. Even if you don't make it on the team, you can practice more and tryout for the team next year, but if you don't want to take sports too seriously, you should still play because, you will gradually loose some weight.
