I believe that sports are a lesson of life

I Believe That Sports are a Lesson in Life I believe that sports build character. They require heart, perseverance, physical and mental strength, and also trust. And if you lack any of these, practicing will develop them. You gain a special bond with your teammates, with wins and especially losses. After a loss you practice harder and concentrate more on perfecting your game. When someone plays with aggression and go all-out you look up to them. There are many situations in athletics where you have to make a quick and important decision and the consequences of that decision will affect the whole team. It is very important for teammates to trust each other. The best teams have many players working toward the same goal as one solid unit. In sports, you can be the underdog or the top dog. Either way you try to be the best you can be and beat your opponent. I think that both, sports that require a team, and sports that rely on your self are both good for you. I believe that sports should be in every kid’s life, not only to keep them active and to keep them in shape, but also to teach them the principals of teamwork, hard work, motivation, dedication, and commitment. All sports will teach you all of those skills. It is also proven that kids in school do better in their classes if they are active in a sport. Sports that take a team, not only shows you how to build character but they also show you team work. Team sports show you how to work together, how to not be selfish. Every young kid should be active in a team sport, to help him or her learn that you can’t always be a ball hog, or always want to be the hot shot of the team; it shows you how to work together. I also strongly believe in independent sports, like wrestling. Wrestling is a team sport, but when you are out on the mat it’s just you and your opponent, no one else. I believe that kids should also be involved in independent sports, because they teach you to not always rely on
