<em>Although it was raining fairly hard, the team played its best game ever.</em>
This is a complex sentences whcih contains two clauses : a main clause and a subordinate clause of concession.
The main clause is <em>the team played its best game ever.</em> The subordiante clause of concession is introduced by the subordinating conjunction <em>Although</em>.
<em>The team</em> is the subject of the main clause in this sentence. Within that main clause <em>played its best game ever </em>is the <u>predicate.</u>Within the predicate<em> its best game </em>is the direct object and <em>ever, </em>an adverb of time.
<em>It</em> is the subject of the subordinate clause of concession and <em>was raining fairly hard,</em> the predicate. The conjugated verbal phrase <em>was raining</em> has an adverbial phrase of manner<em> fairly hard</em>. Hard is the head of the phrase and <em>fairly</em> an adverb of degree.
