- Volleyball should be practiced during the school day, just like other sports.
Reason 1:
- Football and basketball are two "big" sports that are practiced during the school day, which gives the athletes an advantage over other athletes of different sports.
- Commentary 1: Volleyball for one, is practiced after school when football and basketball are let out. This gives the volleyball team a disadvantage. It makes it more difficult to get homework done with the decreased amount of time after school.
- Commentary 2: Another advantage that football and basketball have is that they are included as an elective. Players of different sports that do not practice during the school day choose a different elective, plus have to practice their sports on their own time.
- It's common sence that the athleltes who practice after school have less energy than those who practice during the day. I mean, can you think of anyone that has more energy after school than during school? For me, after school I am honestly thinking naptime, not workout time.
- Commentary 1: Athletes that practice during the day only have around 6 hours of study and 2 hours of practice, equaling a total of 8 hours.
- Commentary 2: Athletes who practice after school spend anywhere from 2-2 1/2 more hours at school than the average student. That totals around 10 1/2 hours every day! Valley View, a rival school of the BHS volleyball team, wins state almost every year. They practice during the school day all year round. I believe this has a major affect on their teams notable success.
- Volleyball is not as popular of a sport as football or basketball, so I believe that the class periods should stay as they are in order to keep main programs going as they always have.
- Although given the valid point and not wanting to take away from the main programs, i have to disagree that the sports that practice out side of school should continue that way. These sports have not been given a chance and athletes are "becoming very overwhelmed" with the amount of school work and sports added together.

This paragraph is mainly Inductive because it is soley based on opinion and some facts.
