Sports have been played all over the world for hundreds, maybe thousands of years. There are many different kinds. Some of them are very popular and most provide many benefits to anyone who plays them. Some of them are played individually, whereas others are played in a team’s against another team. I am going to write about the similarities and differences between two sports; basketball and football.
Firstly, there are some important similarities between basketball and football. Firstly, they are both team sports. A basketball team consist of five players, while a football team is made up of eleven players. In both of these sports, players can be replaced by substitutes when they are injured or tired. Another similarities between them is that they both use a ball, although these are not exactly the same. A football is round, light, quite hard, and made of either leather of synthetic material. It is usually black and white .In contrast, a basketball is generally not as light and it is made of hard rubber. It is us usually a reddish-brown color.
Finally, although there are some similarities, there are also some important differences. One difference is the part of the body used to control the ball. In contracts, basketball players can only use their hand to control the ball, which they dribble, pass and shoot. In football, the feet are used to dribble, kick and trap the ball. Also, people sometimes use their heads to head the ball .Another obvious difference is the places that these sports are played. Football is generally played outdoors on grass pitches, whereas basketball is usually played indoors on a wooden surface, although quite a lot of people also play outdoors on concrete basketball courts.
In the end, all in all, most sports, especially team sports like basketball and football, give players a chance to develop themselves physically. They can also learn self-discipline and teamwork at the same time. That is probably the reason basketball and football are so popular all around the world.
