I've been playing Basketball for the last 4 years. Unfortunately, my most important hobby also consumes a lot of time, but not one second is wasted (even though my parents might have a different point of view).
Anyway, Basketball is pure fun, and I can only recommend to everybody to give it a shot (man, what a coincidence!). If you only have half the fun I do, I hope to see U in my Bball club, the VFB HERMSDORF.
