Your school is starting a team, what should it be?

If my school were starting a team I would want the team to be a surf team. Surfing teaches you balance, which can help with other sports. Surfing is fun. Surfing is also good exercise. Having a surf team is a lot of work, but is very fun.

Surfing teaches you balance. Learning balance is a key factor when it comes to surfing. Yoga can help with increasing your balance which will help with other sports. Some people enjoy doing yoga on there own but if you are on a surf team you could hire an instructor to teach your team. Yoga and Surfing are both good sports to do if you are wanting to be in shape or just have fun.

Surfing is lots of fun! Especially if you surf with a group. Surfing doesn't teach you teamwork but surfing does teach you independence which is a very good quality. Surfing can be very fun when you catch your first wave, the exhilaration and speed is amazing. Surfing is definitely a very fun sport!

Surfing is very good exercise. For some people exercising isn't always fun. So surfing with a group can be quite fun especially if you start to throw in mini competitions. When surfing you use you stomach and arm muscles A LOT. So after a hard day of surfing you have gotten a good bit of exercise! Surfing is a wonderful way to exercise.

If my school was staring a team I would want the team to be a surf team. Surfing teaches you a great deal of balance. Surfing is lots of fun. Surfing is great exercise. So if your school needs another team surfing is definitely a great sport!
