Basketball options

Dear Editor:

I am a student at John Black Public School and I live in Fergus, and I love playing basketball.

I think that they should have more areas to play basketball outside in Fergus and Elora. I think a good idea for a place is the Fergus sportsplex because it has lots of room, lots of parking and it is close to neighborhoods, so it makes it easy for kids or teenagers who cannot drive yet.

It would also be a much more fun trip for kids who have to go watch their siblings play some sort of sport like hockey or ringette. It is also a good way to get outside and do something when you’re bored.

To put in two high school courts it would cost at least $42,400 and I think that it would make a lot of kids really happy, including me.
