Come to think of writing a report on three countries‚ I haven’t traveled all that much... When I started working on this topic in the beginning I found it uninteresting‚ but when I started doing an extensive research‚ I found this topic more and more inviting.

I also believe things can always be changed if the need is there. As of now‚ the research does show that sports like football and hockey do need a change. This is undeniable.
