In this picture I can see like 10 teenagers playing basketball on a court. It seems to me that the picture was taken from the grandstand. On the right I can see 4 people watching the match. They must be friends or family, or other people who are waiting to play later.
There are three groups of players. In the foreground, there are two teenagers and on the right there’s the father who is watching them playing. On the left hand side of the picture there’s a clay football pitch and a ball in the goal. However, I can’t see anyone playing football.
I think teenagers like them can benefit a lot from playing sports after school because doing sport helps them physically and mentally. They can make friends and be more focused when it’s time to study. So, it’s a much better idea than playing video games alone at home, for example.
