Grade 8: Basketball Competition is in Full Swing

On any other occasion, I wouldn’t believe that there could be so many people on the basketball court at lunch break. But at present, it isn’t surprising, because every day at noon, the eighth grade basketball games are in full swing.

Even the students who are unenthusiastic towards basketball normally are attracted by this kind of blood-boiling’ scene. Listen to the commentators:
