thing that they inn common is the both play with a ball
and nets. Also they have two teams that play against
each other. The differences are in volleyball there is a
net in the middle of the court. Also the balls are
different. A volleyball is softer and smaller.Baseketball is
easier to bounce .

Problem and Solution
When you run up the court and you miss the basket
you have to keep trying. When you get the ball the next
time you square up and shoot the ball into the net. When
you make the basket your team will cheer you on. You
might get a high five or two.

Cause and and effect
When the opposite team steals the ball that is
because you were not dribbling on the right side of thef
your defender. The effect is when the run ahead of you
the could make a basket and win the game. Also if you
passed the ball the wrong way and the ball will end up
going to the wrong person. If you do the drills right you
could win the game.
