Since I was 10 I played basketball. I played basketball for Glanmire under 12's to under 19's. I also played basketball for my school. With my school I won numerous medals including champions of the under 19's Division C All Irelands in 2003 and second place in the division B all Ireland in 2004. Apart from playing on a competitive level I also play with my friends most weekends from where I live. Since I came to college I have found many people in my course who also have an interest in basketball. We now play games for fun every Tuesday which is great as it helps take my mind off work and college for a while.

My favourite team has always been Chicago Bulls even though they have been on a steady decline in performance since the loss of Major players to the team including the likes of the all round famous superstar Michael Jordan, the smooth shooting Scottie Pippen and the Rebounding King Denis Rodman.

THE FINAL GAME

Michael Jordan - "Now I guess it hits me that i'm not going to be in a uniform anymore, and thats not a terrible feeling. Its something that I've come to grips with, and it's time. This is the final retirement."
