A lot of people play sports,but very few people become sports professionals
()If sports aren't going to be your future,then why should you play them?
Why should you train every day?Why should you work hard and feel sore the next
day?Wouldn't it be better to forget sports and only care about your lessons?In fact,
there are a lot of reasons to play sports.
First of all,sports are a great way to exercise.Exercise keeps you healthy and
strong.It also helps you stay in a good condition.When you exercise,your body
makes endorphins which give you more energy and make you feel happier.
Also,sports teach young people how to communicate and work as a team.
They teach young people to respect (their coaches,teammates and players
from the other team.Many reporters say that sports help young people stay out of
trouble.If a young person plays sports,he or she may have fewer problems.This is
because sports teach people about rules.They also teach people that if they work
hard,they might succeed.
Another good way of sports is that they make people leave their houses.These
days,a lot of people spend too much time watching television and playing
computer games.When you play sports,you go outside and exercise in the sun.
