Hi there,
You're absolutely right. Opposite is the adjective and opposition is the noun.
Eg. Don't throw the ball to him! He's on the opposite team from us!
When women started demanding the right to vote they faced a lot of opposition.
Another difference is that opposite usually describes space/location.
Eg. Please stand opposite me and I'll do your make up for you.
Opposition doesn't describe location, it just describes the fact that you're an enemy or that you're on the opposite side of the argument (figurative, not literal) for an adjective more like this you can use "opposing" in formal situations. "Jane Mckellen has the ball now but it looks like the opposing team has taken it. They're passing it between them now and, oh! And they've scored! Another victory for the Blue Team!"
I hope this information helps, please let me know if you have any questions.
Best wishes,
Katherine

Opposite can be used as a noun and an adjective.
The opposite side ... the opposite position (ADJ)
I wanted him to do one thing, but he did the opposite (NOUN)
Opposition can be both a noun or adjective also, but it refers to a group that is against you. For example:
In a politics you could say the opposition (NOUN) or the opposition (ADJ) party.
