The Big Guns Vs the Young Ones



Adrenaline rush among players is nothing unheard of but to live the experience from the stands while cheering one’s throats dry is definitely something out of this world. It is simply magic to catch a good game live and unfold in front of your eyes. Every point scored, every sigh let out, every leap of joy, cry of pain, and each and every shout for cheer is passion personified.  I wonder why our stands are not brimming at every game, since there is nothing compared to experiencing the sporting passion which goes deep into the sinews of every young player. 
Well, I was fortunate enough to witness such a game this week at the _________Basketball tournament-  “The_____ Big Guns Vs the ________Young Ones”. Blood and Sweat literally laced the game, where the score tally went up and down like a roller coaster till it decided to stop at 35 – 27 in the favour of sheer experience and poise under pressure.  The match confirmed that between a battle of stamina, fitness, grit, passion, and levelheadedness under pressure, the latter counts more than anything else. Both teams aced their games and produced awe-inspiring baskets and passes throughout. There never was a dull moment. The expressions in the stand and on the sides ranged from wide-eyed amazement to screaming fits! It was an absolute joy and pleasure to watch our gentleman heroes on the sporting field.  I for one am not going to miss any more of such action if I can help it!
