My Magic Basketball Shoes

By: Spencer

Hi! My name is Spencer from Halifax, Nova Scotia. I love to play basketball at home and with my friends.

I play in a league called the MBA. [a.k.a. the Metro Basketball Association]. It is all in the Halifax area. I play on SMB Slam.

My Dad has some old Air Jordan’s that he used to wear playing basketball, so he decided to give the shoes to me. He said to try them on the weekend.

It’s finally Saturday!!!! I will get to try on my new sneakers after I finish my math homework. “3x12=36. Now I am done.” I went downstairs and the shoes fit perfectly.

RRRRRRR!!!! The sound of my car is loud. Well I just arrived at my basketball game. My team is blue and the other is red. We play halves and the captains take the jump ball. “Ready, go!”

I bring the ball up and I am also playing in my new shoes. I shoot!!! I score!!! “WOOOOOOO” you can here it from my bench. At the end of the first half the score was 47 red 56 blue.

“I will run a play guys”. I said that during a time out. I ran a play called 1. We scored!!!!! At the end of the game the score was 99 red 107 blue.

My family congratulated me on the win. Our team won the cup and we all got medals. I even won the MVP [ Most Valuable Player] of the tournament. Go Slam!!!!!!
