Difference and Similarity Essay - Football vs Basketball

Ball For Foot And Basket
            Competence and show have always a great significance on human being.  Life has pushed people to compete each other somehow and enjoy it.  At this point, people always love activities including competence and show.  Accordingly, as sportive activities are consisted of competence and show, it has taken its place on the lives of people unconciously.  Out of all sportive activities, some of them, such as football and basketball, stand out de to their popularity.  These two types of sports have lots of things in common, while bearing some contradictions.

            First of all, the teamwork is a must in both sports.  That is to say, additional to individual talents, working as a team is the pinpoint on the way leading to success.  To examplify, imagine a team full of talented players lacking of  team spirit, and, on the other hand, imagine a team with average players playing like a clock.  Maybe the talented players can create a show for audience but it will surely be boring in time.  In the one hand, to build a teamwork, some tactics and strategies are needed.  As in the all parts of life, the way leading to an enjoyable and nice game must be identified in the begining with these tactics and strategies.  Therefore, the coordination and the harmony will be stated on the team.

            As another aspect, they are both exhausting.  Namely, they both require hardworking and training.  The success of the team is the most important goal in both, and to contribute to achieving this aim, all the members of a team should tear themselves as in the proverb: “No pain, no gain.”.  In the one hand, basketball is more exhausting than football on the contrary to public opinion.  Football is played on a large field compared to the basketball.  However, basketball players use their energy more and can be more active on a small field.
           
Finally, the players in both sports have to be talented.  This talent does not have to be extreme, a small talent that can be improved is enough.  These talents are different in both sports.  In basketball, the hand-arm coordination and power is more important, while, in football, it is leg coordination.  On the other hand, some improvable talents are in common both: stamina and agility.  These two specialities are important for both.

            To sum up, football and basketball are two main attractive sports in todays world.  As discussed in the introduction paragraph, the main goals of these are show and competence.  Some like football and some like basketball or some like both and some like neither.  That is, interests are determining point to like one.  If you ask me sports is a must in every people’s life.
