There is a lot of things that are good and bad in sport teams. The good thing about teams is that you get fit and be a lot healthier in life. Also you can be doing something so fun, but getting stronger and a better person. The bad things about teams is that your team mates can be selfish and not share the ball, like in soccer. Also they can be really rude and just call you names for doing something wrong. I think that being on a team is not always great, but you will experience things that you probably wouldn't see any other activity.
ReplyDeleteIt mostly depends on the sport that we would be playing. I find it easier to not have a team to relay plan that may or may not work. Also sometimes your team will be judgemental depending on whether your ideas were sufficient or not. But some of the significant perks to being on a team is, for one, you don't have to be in more than one place to get to the ball whether you must hit it or catch it. Also it can be more useful than working alone also it may be a little faster. Once I was on a team playing eclipse ball and these three kids thought they could take the whole class so everyone moved over and they started off good but still lost.
ReplyDeleteWhen playing on a team there are some good and bad things about it. Some of the good things are helping others win, and being happy. When you are on a team you becomes friends and have sleep overs. There are some bad things about being on a school team, like you won't get along with some of your team mates. You can also get in to fights with them and you could not be there friends, or the other team mates could hate u. There are so many good and bad things about being on a team.

There are some good things about being on a team but there are also some bad things too. Some good things are that you have people to help you and you all are able to support each other. Also you're not by yourself competing alone. Some bad things about being on a team is that one person can ruin the whole game for the team by messing up and then the rest of the team will be mad at that one person that accidentally messed up.
I play baseball, the best team sport there is, and ever will be. Baseball is a particularly difficult sport to play from a team standpoint. Baseball is a mental game, if you get rattled over a bad call, go crazy over someone making a good play on your hit, or one strikeout, you have to leave it on the field. If you go out to play defense and you stand there and kick yourself and put yourself down, the ball will find you. This is why its important to be strong together as a team, somebody else has to pick up the guy that's down and make a play. You can't help put the guy down either, he knows he made a mistake and he isn't happy about it either, only thing you can do is go out and make up for it.

I think that there are plenty of positive and negative things about being a part of a school team. Some of the positives being that you get to work alongside your friends and develop your skills to work towards getting better. Also you get to form relationships with new people from working together. Now some of the negatives about being on a team is that obviously you can't always get along. You will have moments of being angry or upset with a team mates performance. Then other times you may think that your whole team is against you. However, the beauty of a team is, that at the end of the day you are all like a family to each other and you all just want what is best for each other so that the team stays strong.

Playing on a team can be a good and bad thing. A couple good things about playing on a team are being able to make friends and being able to work together. Another good thing about being on a team is you have a group of people that are there for you. When I was on a team everyone was supportive and always trying to help me improve. A couple bad things about being on a team is not getting to do other things because you are so invested in that sport. Also, being competitive all the time can cause stress on the team.
well I find it to be more good than bad although others disagree. Some of the good things is that you get to have fun and play with friends. Really the only bad part is that your taking a risk on hurting yourself possibly and that you have a chance of losing. but there is still more good to it than bad. I myself use to play soccer, baseball, and basketball and i always found there's more good than bad.

Being on a team has both good and bad things about it. The good things about being on a team is that everyone can help work together to win. Being a part of a team make it easier to play sports because you help each other out. Playing together also builds trust between each other, you learn to communicate, play as a whole instead of one, and depend on your teammates to be there for you. The bad things about being on a team is that sometimes people don't cooperate like they should. A team needs communication to work right, without communication it is very difficult to play together and win. Most of the time not much communication or none at all can cause arguments and tear the team apart to where they don't want to work together. I love playing soccer and volleyball, but when there isn't any communication, trust, or participation, it is hard to play together and enjoy playing as a team.

Playing team sports have ups and downs... The ups are you get to have fun with friends and you get to talk to people you don't usually talk to. Also I feel somethings are better to do as group because if the coach doesn't have enough time to help you with things you can ask your friends. Everyone has things that there better at then others. The downside is you sometimes don't get that much playing time because everyone has to be able to play at some point. Another downside is people may have been playing longer then you so you might be behind in your skill level maybe behind but you can always caught up. So those are the ups and downs

Playing on a team do have their good and bad experiments.
Bad thing is you have no idea who anyone is, so you don’t communicated with each other. While the Good thing is you get to create new friends, build bonds and help out with everyone.
Last time I played on a team i didn't really communicate as much.

Bad things about being on a team is that sometimes the team mates dont want to get along with you or They want to be selfish with the ball. There is just many things That are good and bad.

One thing good about it, is people learn to work together and get along to reach the same goal. It also teaches you to think less of yourself, and act less selfishly, because you'll be thinking of everything and everyone not just yourself. But a few bad things though is that you might forget about the people and look at everyone as a whole, because you get caught up in doing the work.
Teamwork is a good thing and a bad thing. You get to have fun with friends and you get to talk to people you don't usually talk to.Also I feel somethings are better to do as group because if the coach doesn't have enough time to help you with things you can ask your friends.A team needs communication to work right, without communication it is very difficult to play together and win. Most of the time not much communication or none at all can cause arguments and tear the team apart to where they don't want to work together. So that is my thinking about teamwork.

Playing on a school team has a lot of good things but it also has some down sides. On the plus side you get to play with people that want something the same as you do and you make friends with your teammates and even the other players. There is great motivation and people always there to encourage you on. That can also be a bad thing though, when you or another teammate messes up everyone gets upset because they'd all worked together to get that point. There's also the downside that some people may be more experienced than you so people will always focus on them or even the fact that because of that you won't get as much playing time as the others.

Good things about being on a sports team is the exercise and something to do to keep yourself physically active, and it give you something to look forward to and a goal to keep your grades up. Bad things about it is that people can be selfish and you couldnt be getting along with people and that effects the Playing of the team.

I think the biggest struggle of playing on a team is being a team. Some people don't get along or don't try to. Or sometimes people can take the blame and it not be fair if they mess up. Tons of different things can happen. It's just what you put towards your team. You have to put everyone together in order to do any good.

I am on the school soccer and some good things about being on the team are bonding with your other teammates. Being on the team makes you feel like you are apart of something and that you can accomplish something in your life. There are many things that make a person feel good about themselves by being on a school team, but there are also many bad things. Being on the team is a privilege. It can easily be taken away, if you fail in school you will be kicked off the team. You have to devote time to the team, you have to show up to practice when they have practice. You have to participate in all the events they have.
I love playing team sports and have done it all my life. It can really help you bond with your friends. It also helps keep you doing lots of physical activity. You can also end up winning different and can, in the long run, a life out of it. There is lots of different things that come from playing team sports. You lots of different things from playing team sports like determination and other things.

Well, I have only been on two teams; speech and FTC. Speech requires no teamwork at all whatsoever and sometimes I'm competing against people from Stover so that's a terrible example. FTC requires teamwork but I don't know if it's the same teamwork you need for sports. Basically I am not someone with the experience that qualifies them to answer this question.

ReplyDeleteThere are many Pros and Cons to playing on a team. One pro of being on a team is that it is a great opportunity to make friends and meet new people. The con of that would be that you have practice and games more so you can't really hang out with you friends outside of school. Another pro would be scholarships and other academic opportunities come with playing on a team. The con is that since you are playing a sport you are tired more so you have more homework and you don't have as much time to do your homework after school.

There are good and bad things about playing on a team. If your team cooperates then playing on a team is fun. If your team doesn't cooperate and is always mouthing each other then playing on a team is no fun at all. I believe playing on the soccer team is fun. All my friends play on the team with me. We all get along and have fun.

There are good and bad things about playing on a sports team, If you play on a team you get to make new friends and play sports together. A bad thing about playing on a sports team is that on nights when you have practice or a game you have less time to do homework and have less time to rest.

Playing on sports teams can be a tinsy tiny bit challenging, and sometimes they can be really rewarding, then they can't be at the same time. Team sports allow you to meet new people and see new things. Bus rides tend to blow but they can also be really fun, they can be and really good nap time but then when you take a nap you could wake up and be in the middle of no where on a gravel road heading to a game. Overall team sports are fun and challenging.

There are good and bad things about about being on a team and playing a sport. The good things are you get to see your friends maybe get to know new people. Also playing a good game and winning and just having fun. The bad things are you are going to have to sacrifice your spare time and having late night games. Also you will have to put hard work into it to do your best so you can win your games.

I have likes and dislikes when it comes to playing team sports, but overall I like it a lot. I have had the opportunity to experience both playing on a team and playing by myself. I play on the basketball team, but when I'm playing golf, it's just me. Playing alone is interesting, because your own fate is absolutely in your hands. If you have a bad day in a team sport, you have teammates there to pick you up and you might still win. However, if you have a bad day when golfing, that's just the way it is. Additionally, if you have a great day golfing, it was all you, and that is a great feeling. When golf season ends, I usually look forward to basketball season. It's nice to do my own thing for a while, but I'm always ready to have teammates again and work hard with other people to achieve a common goal. Individual sports teach extreme focus and responsbility, and team sports teach cooperation and communication. I think all of these aspects are very important and I have learned a lot from both of my experiences.

Playing on a team sport is both good and bad. The benefits of playing on a team sport is you are going to constantly be spending time with new people and friends so you may get to meet new people and become closer to your current friends already, also you are not going to be by your self so you can learn how to co-op with your teammates, and you cant always expect a certain player(s) on your team to be just as good as you or even just as bad as you. You win as a team you lose as a team. The downsides of playing a team sport is you and other players could have conflict and argument on the team but if you are close enough you can have competition and when playing a team sport competitions is both good and bad it can cause problems and make you better as a team. The downsides of playing on a school team is that you are going to constantly be hounded about your grades and keeping them up but when practice is right after school you could also have homework and become swamped with it and piled up with things to do.

When you are part of a team there are many benefits and downsides. You are supported by a second family but if you have an issue with a team member you're stuck with them. I think teams are very good because they give you support, give you new opportunities, and can be a second family to you. Sometimes they can be bad tho, For instance if you have a team member you do not like, or if someone is constantly preventing the team from moving forward, or if someone is causing trouble to the team. Overall i think being part of a team is very crucial and it prepares you for the teams you will be on for the rest of your life.

Playing on a team sport is good and bad but I think it is mostly good. Playing on a team sport is good because you get the chance t make friends. You also learn how to work with others and be a leader. It is nice to have teammates to encourage you. You make lots of great memories with your team, and you win and lose with them. The bad things about playing on a team is getting punished for your teammates mistakes. Another downside could be he team not getting along.

As everyone can imagine, there are always positives and negatives to everything. One which being, playing on a sports team in high school. While there are probably more positive things about playing on a sports team, there are some negatives. One negative factor is keeping straight A's. While you are participating in a sport, you need to balance your life. Grades take time and effort to keep them up. When you have two-three games a week, like this week, you might be a little stressed out. You have to stay on top of your game as well as homework. That's honestly the only negative thing that I can think of other than not being able to hold a steady job, but you could always work on the weekends or after the season is over. Some positive aspects of playing sports is it keeps you in shape, allows more friendships, helps get your mind off things, and to have something to look forward to after a long day. Staying in shape is important right now, and later down the road. It will benefit your health and physical looks. You can escape in your sport from a bad day, and get your mind off bad things. These are some negative and positive aspects of playing a sport.

I think there are more pros with being on a team than cons. In Academic Team and FTC for example, you get to make new friends with people who have the same interests as you. Also, you're not all on your own. On Speech & Drama for example, we're a team, but we have our own individual pieces we perform whereas in Academic Team, we answer questions together. The pressure isn't on just one person. However, with any group that your in, there can be drama and occasional arguments. Sometimes when you're in a group, one person may be stuck doing all the work while the others just mess around. But in the end, I think that you gain more skills and experiences working in a team than on your own.

There are many advantages and disadvantages to playing on a school sports team. An advantage to playing is the communication and teamwork skills you build by becoming a leader for the rest of your team. Another advantage is that sports are fun and they give you something to put your time into. A disadvantage is that sports can be costly for shoes, shirts, food, etc. Another disadvantage to playing sports is that they do take a lot of your time and it can be hard to keep up with homework and other work. Lastly sports can cause injuries but to me it's worth going through all of these things to do something I love.

Some advantages are when you go to practice you get to hang out with friends while playing the sport that you enjoy.Another advantage would be if you beat a team it feels like you accomplished something as a team.A disadvantage would be some kids like to argue with each other then the other kids get mad and we start playing like crap.But playing on a team has many more advantages then disadvantages.

There are advantages and disadvantages when working on a team. A disadvantage could be that your team doesn't respect or that they treat you differently depending on your friends or something in that matter. Another disadvantage could be that you don't agree of how things are getting done or how the others play. An advantage to this could be that you would probably get a better training and more skill, it could also increase the skill of how well you work with others. Another advantage could be that you could make new friends. This is only a few advantages and disadvantages.

There are many advantages and disadvantages to playing a team sport. I think there are more advantages than disadvantages. Playing a team sport builds communication and teamwork skills, and also builds friendships. When I first came to this school, I wasn't going to play basketball because I was too nervous. I thought the girls wouldn't want me to play because I was new. I'm glad that I played because they helped me to become a better player and I made new friends. A disadvantage to playing sports is the money that it cost. If you play one sport then it's not too bad, but if you play more than one it can be a little costly.

Well I have never personally been on a school team. But something that I consider a team is choir. Because in choir you have to work as a team to achieve the goal, that the rest of the choir wants to achieve. You can't do that if you all don't work together. Being a team means working as one. It means a whole lot of people, or very few people, working together to achieve a common goal.

Playing on a school team can have a lot of advantages and disadvantages. A disadvantage could be getting treated differently based on who is friends with who or who is popular and who isn't. An advantage could be making new friends and communicating well during games so you can be a better team.
Being part of a team is a good life experience. As a team you learn to succeed together or fail together. A good part of being on a team is you learn to work with others and communicate. A bad thing is sometimes not everybody on the team agrees with what is being done. Being on a team be it volleyball, soccer, or even an officer for a club is something everybody should experience at least once in their life. It builds skills that will be used throughout life.

Personally I think being a a school team is a great opportunity even with the downsides such as getting in arguments, disagreements, and the occasional drama. There are so many great things that come from being on a school team. Such as meeting new people, hanging out with friends, learning teamwork skills, scholarships, and you get exercise to stay fit, healthy, and happy! Being on a school team is a great experience for most so I do encourage all to at least once be on the school soccer team, volleyball. or even basketball. The experience will be worth it!

I like fall for a couple reasons. One it's neither too hot nor too cold 90 percent of the time, and I like average. And I also like how the scene matches my personality, depressing and somewhat grey. I actually like the rainy weather and leaves everywhere is artistic to say the least.

In robotics club, we N.E.R.D.S. have to work together as a team. This teamwork can be really great when needed to find solutions to problems, but can do poorly when we're deciding something. The members in robotics are brilliant minds that are capable of great things when they work together. We already have a robot built and programed, and we're starting to design another for First Tech Challenge. However, everyone has different personalities and opinions on not just our robot, but everything nerdy. We can get a little rowdy sometimes, and we don't always make a lot of progress at our practices. But I'm confident in each one of our members, and I think we'll do very well for our first year in FTC.

I think there is plenty of both good and bad aspects of school sports. It teaches good teamwork skills, builds friendships, mostly helps keep grades up, keeps kids out of trouble, and can be a confidence boost. Teamwork, and being a teammate or team player is the most important part in team sports in my opinion. I would rather have a bunch of decent players that are good teammates on my team than have 25 Bryce Harper's that can't get along.
