Sports keep teens well behaved at school and in class. Sports reduce the number of fights, and bad classroom behavior. In order to play any sport in high school, the students must make good grades. If they fail to make the grades, then they are either dismissed from the team, or they must take a study hall before each practice for at least 30 minutes, sometimes even for the whole day until his or her grade comes up to a passing grade.

John Wooden (NCAAB Hall of Fame coach) said, “Sports do not build character. They reveal it.” High school sports are usually beneficial to all parties involved, such as the athletes, parents and the schools that have the athletic programs.

Parents can also benefit financially, when their child is good enough at a sport to get offered a scholarship which may pay for all of college.

Their association with these things make people wonder if we should have them in our schools, and the answer is, rather obviously, no.

One reason high school sports aren’t beneficial is because they create a lot of pressure. According to the video “Do Athletes Face Unnecessary Parent Pressure?” by KCRA, sports are sometimes the only way students can get into a good college and be able afford it. This puts a lot of pressure on the athletes to perform at their best 100% of the time. Experts say that your child's entire team will suffer if the parents are pressuring their kids (KCRA.com, “Do Athletes Face Unnecessary Parent Pressure?” ). This fact is important because it proves, when parents put pressure on their children it does not benefit them, in fact it is actually setting them up for life in an unhealthy way. This shows that the pressure from sports is not good and not worth it.…

When in high school, one of the most memorable things to do is go to the games, attend homecoming, or the pep rallies every semester. One thing they all have in common is that they are tied to sports. High school sports are an important part of children's lives whether they are the ones attending the game or the one playing in it. A few years ago, Solano County tried to cut sports programs because there was no room in the budget for it. The community reacted by spending their whole summer raising money in any way they could by selling things to standing outside of the mall collecting donations with the fire department. High school sports programs are important and should not be on the list of school cuts.…
For example, more than 20 nations have a better high school graduation rates than the U.S. A former high school football player, his school canceled sports and he said that “there's so much time, you never get behind on your work.” This shows that sports are distracting athletes from their education. Another example is that studies show students perform better when schools start later in the morning, yet schools still starts early so athletes have more daylight so they can practice. This shows that sports do not only distract from learning it effects when the learning begins. This proves why schools should cut back on sports because it distracts them from learning.…
High School sports have always been questioned because of all the health risks that they bring to those who participate in them.
