Why should the boys have to share things like sports with the girls and vice versa. I think that the boys should have their own thing and the girls should have their own thing too. First off it would be ac ward in the locker room and on the field. The kids will also be forced in to doing it to. Last it will cost way to much money to buy all this stuff. Those are the reasons that I think that boys and girls should be in different sports. It would be ac ward if you walk onto the football…

Sports in schools definitely can help students by enhancing their social interaction with other students. Sports is considered as a physical activity and it helps students to stay strong, healthy, and focused. In the article, “Have Sports Teams Brought Down America’s Schools?” Elizabeth Kolbert says that schools should not have sports mainly because sports have can distract students with their education. It is often said that sports can take over a lot of a student's part. It’s mostly like a…

Almost all the doctors recommend exercising as convalescence and prevalent of many diseases. Athletes are divided into two types – amateur and professionals.

Being a part of my high school women’s tennis team for 4 years has taught me how to thrive in a team environment while still growing as an individual. Tennis is an interesting sport in that even though you each play individually and accumulate a personal win-loss record, you are ultimately judged at the team level – if you don’t have a competitive team your win-loss record won’t matter because your team will be eliminated and your season will be cut short. I think this creates a unique…

To be or not To Be: Should Sports be allowed in Schools? Recently, there has been speculation within the education community as to whether or not sport programs should be allowed to continue as an extracurricular activity. Typically, any high school in the country has a team for any and every sport available. However, there have been arguments, such as the one made by Amanda Ripley in her article: “School Should Be About Learning, Not Sports” that suggest sports programs do not benefit students…

What constitutes a sport? I believe, a sport is an activity where the mind and body are challenged. For example, we all know basketball, football, baseball, and soccer all fit under the category of being a sport. However, we get into more of a deeper question when we think about poker, chess, swimming, or ice dancing. In my opinion these would be considered competitions rather than a sport. I believe that if you are competing against another person or team and this activity requires strategy or…

often put their children in sports to help them “fit in”, gain self-confidence, and get healthy, but sometimes it has the opposite effect. Competition sports can turn some children into arrogant athletes with no sense of sportsmanship and sometimes sports can make an introverted child more likely to withdraw and feel pressured. Tension and stress are felt by all children who play athletics in some form or another. The point is to know the child’s boundaries and know which sport suits them based…

any teams to cheer for. You won’t experience the adrenalin rush, and you won’t get to have a scoring touchdown. This is a common situation all around the world. Some schools are getting rid of students’ passion, and what they put their hearts into. Kids are losing what they love doing. Schools should not get rid of sports, because sports help relieve stress, they improve academic and physical health, and not every kid can afford club sports. Schools should not get rid of sports because sports…

Many people believe cheerleading is not a sport, but I happen to disagree. Acording to Wikipedia, the definition of a sport is an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment. Now I will admit that school cheering, when just cheering for another sport, is not a sport. Although competitive cheerleading is a sport, many people believe that it is not. (The Women's Sport Foundation has narrowed the field to the…

Watching my older sister picking up a hockey stick at a young age sparked my competitive nature, as there was no chance she was going to be better than me! I was brought up in a hockey family where sport has always played a key part of our lifestyle. Through my love of the game I have developed several Injuries over the years ranging from broken bones, shin splints to more recently Osgood-Schlatter’s disease, all of which have prevented me from playing from time to time. This is how I discovered…
