Composition, lenses and photography terms

I would use a telephoto lens to a football game somewhere that is like dark because it allows you to get closer to the subject and it makes it look better.

I would use a prime lens to like a soccer game somewhere theres lighting and good amount of space.

I would use the wide-angle lenses to a marching band because they perform and they do a lot of formations and this would capture the whole marching band and what there trying to spell or make.
