Taking part in sports plays a big role in the society.
People engage in sports for a variety of reasons. There are those who engage for fitness reasons while others will participate for health reasons. In addition, some participate in sports for “other” reasons. Examples of these “other” reasons are because of socialization and character development (Doty, 2006).
Team sports contribute a lot in character development. The word “TEAM” can be expressed to mean (Together, Everyone, Achieves, More).For a better understanding of how team sports builds good character, we will define the word “character”.
