My Favorite Hobby

My favorite hobby is playing basketball. This is my favorite hobby because it is something that I turn to when I have nothing else to do. I do have other things to keep me occupied in my free time, but this would be my first option to turn to. What I like most about basketball is that it is a game of strategy. For example, if I were going to play a certain team in basketball, I would watch video of the team in order to learn their style of play. I then can formulate a game plan in order for me to possibly beat them. What is another great feature of basketball is that it is a team game. This game requires  everyone on the team to put effort in order to be successful. Everyone on the team brings something different they can offer to help the team be successful. A third thing I like about basketball is that it is a game where you can always improve. If I think I am an average free throw shooter and could use improvement on my jump shot, then I know that I can improve if I work hard enough. These are some reasons why basketball is my favorite hobby.
