    Subject: "I" is the subject. The subject of a sentence is the person, place, thing, or idea that is doing or being something. (Who wants to play? I want to play.) (I)

    Simple Predicate: "want." The simple predicate is the one, main verb that is the action being performed (want).

    Complete Predicate: "want to play a football game" is the complete predicate. (Usually a sentence is divided into the subject and the predicate. The subject is all of the words that make up who/what is doing the action in the sentence. The predicate is all of the words that make up the action being performed.)

    3: Prepositional phrase: "on the blue turf" is the prepositional phrase. (A prepositional phrase begins a sentence with a preposition, and ends with a noun. "On" is the preposition and "turf" is the noun.)
