The Idea of School without Sports
Can you imagine school without sports? No more games to go to, no more pep rallies. People are now beginning to wonder if sports should stay or go. I believe sports are very important for schools. Sports keep students active. It gives them something to do rather than to sit on the couch. Aside from keeping students active, it gives them an incentive to behave in class and get good grades. Even though you’re learning to be an athlete, you are learning other lifestyle skills along with it.
Would you rather have your kid sitting at home on the couch, or at the gym or field? When you are out being physically active your blood is pumping. I know that when I get out of the house and do things to get my blood pumping I feel better; I am in a better mood. Honestly if schools didn’t have sports I would just go online.
Sports are an incentive for students. You have to have good grades to play; so, if you are on the team you have something to motivate you to keep up your grades. Not only grades, but your attitude. If you have a bad attitude in class, your teacher could tell your coach, and you could be done for a game or two. That is a good rule for me, because it makes me control myself. I love being an athlete, because I’ve learned that there is so much you have to learn to be a real athlete.
Being an athlete means so much ore than being good at sports. You have to be reliable, and a team player. Your team needs to be able to rely on you to get the job done, but know that you can’t do it alone. Team sports means that it takes more than one person to win. You can’t guy one person on the basketball court and expect to beat a team of 5. It is just not likely. You need to be able to be a team, but work as one. You also need to be able to be a leader. Every team needs someone with leadership. When there are team issues someone needs to step up and take care of it. They need to be able to pick up the team when it is down. To be a true athlete you need to have just as
