Hobby as EC

<p>I love basketball. I play it, mostly pick-up games, at least 15 hours a week in summer and 5-10 hours per week during school. Could I list this as an EC? I have not joined the basketball team in school, not because of a lack of ability, but because my school's sports are very political. I have played in a church league last year, but I play a lot more than just two months of the year. Is this a legitimate EC?</p>

<p>Honestly, in my opinion, an EC is anything you devote a significant amount of time to. You devote 15 hours a week to basketball, which makes a large part of your life. I think it counts as an EC, but you should get a second opinion.</p>

<p>Depends how you word it, but you can pull it off. The church league part is interesting and you should not leave the out when describing the EC, if you do decide to list it.</p>

<p>Ok. Thanks. I’ll probably ask my counselor and see what he thinks.</p>
