Basketball

2. Introduction
• A partner at Greene & Company LLP, Adam Greene
has more than two decades of experience as a CPA.
A resident of Melville, NY, Adam Greene also
coaches the Half Hollow Hills Youth Basketball
League.
Basketball is among the most popular sports in the
world. It is easy to play, requiring only a ball, a
hoop, and a court. Due to the large number of starts
and stops, it’s not known for being an aerobic sport.
However, playing basketball does burn calories,
build endurance and muscle, and improves balance
and coordination.

3. Health and Social Benefits
• Basketball players also acquire better
concentration and self-control.
As a team sport, basketball also offers a number
of social benefits. It’s a great way to meet new
friends and see them regularly. The sport
teaches its players how to become good sports
and can be practiced alone or with a few friends.
And if indoor facilities are available, it can be
played year-round.
