An Interview with Xoan Abreu Costas ( 3º ESO B)

                   The captain of basketball has taught us how to play basketball with style.

1.        When did you start playing basketball?

I started playing in sixth grade when I was 12 years old.

2.        Why did you decide to play basketball and not another sport?

3.        How often do you play basketball?

I practice 2 days a week with my team, but I also practice at home every day and in the park

4.        Which has been your worst injury?

7.        What do you have to do to prevent injuries?

Before starting to play basketball you should warm up (running at a trot, shooting baskets ...) and stretch the whole body

8.        To have a great effect on shots to the basket, what do we have to do?

You have to practice and throw a lot. It’s the only way to score

Yes, tennis and snowboarding

10.    How would you describe yourself as a player?

Well, I’m agile, quick; I’m physically fine, responsible, and respectful with others…
