I want to be a great basketball player that sticks out as the best on the court and i want to be a great player. Im a 5'7'' guard in 8th grade and want to be a star player on my freshman team next year. How can i do that and become a great basketball player? Do i just practice for hours everyday or what?

I LOVE soccer and I want to pursue my dream of being a
professional or possibly national soccer player.

I've been playing soccer for 5 years and I think soccer is my thing.

I'm planning to play soccer in university team. Can I become a professional soccer player by joining university soccer team?

and yes... what university is good at soccer?
