THE IMPORTANCE OF SPORTS
Sports and competition have been around since ancient times, in fact playing with other members of the community is how people bond, grow, and learn. This is not only present in human culture, but many other mammal species also play with one another, and it’s an important part of their day. In other words, living beings love to compete, it is in our nature, so sports are just who we are. And here we will explore the main reasons why sports are important in a community.
Health
Sports are a good form of exercise, and the best part of it is that you don’t have to train for competitive games, it can be just a recreational activity. It’s really important to have some sort of physical activity on a daily basis, regardless of your age, and sports can make that more engaging. If you are playing a sport you like, good exercise just comes with the territory and it’s not perceived as a chore.
It is also important for mental health. It’s healthy to compete as you grow and to come to terms with concepts like victory and failure. Being competitive can be a good drive for a person, but being overly competitive can be toxic and the sooner one starts to work on those issues the better.
Economy
Sports events can be pretty big, and some of the competitions attract tourists or spectators from all over the world. Considering how many leagues or different competitions there are right now, it’s safe to say that sports play an important role in the economy of a certain city or state.
Jobs
This one is closely connected to the economy but it’s good to have it as a separate point. The main reason for this is because there are multiple jobs that are affected by the existence of sports competitions. Trainers, players, judges, commentators, food and drink vendors, cleaning crews, construction jobs, and ticket sellers. These are just some of the jobs that are connected to the stadium, but there are others like bookies, sports equipment designers, and manufacturers, clubs that train new players, even video game designers. The list goes on, which only proves how many people depend on the existence of sports.
National Unity
Another thing we must not forget is unity among citizens of a certain state, town, or even municipality. Sports events can remind us of that sense of belonging and that we as a particular community are also a team. If people can come together and collaborate, society can only go forward, and sports help us reinforce that concept. Celebrating victories are rare opportunities that people can come together regardless of opposing political views for example.
