Have you ever thought why
people do sports? Absolutely, many people seem not to know the reasons. As a
anectode, there are many people who do sports for nothing around us. Everyday we
can encounter with these people. They regularly do sports; however, none of them
realizes the benefits and importance of sports. In fact, vice versa, some people
want to be fit and attractive, look smart. Unfortunately, these people can’t
consider other benefits of sports. In my opinion, there are several benefits of
sports that people often do not consider: sports are required to be healthy
people, are needed for enjoyment, and are great market for countries’ economies.
The first advantage of sports for people is that they help people be healthy,
and be fit. Throughout history, people can’t give up their interest at their
body. I belive that now many people love themselves no matter how beautiful or
ugly they are. Naturally, people’s first aim should be healthy and fit with the
benefits of sports. Due to this fact that Sports keep our body healthy. As a
possible example, imagine that there is a car which has not worked for years. If
you try to run the motor engine, it will not work anymore since it has been
rusted and its engine may be broken down. As a result, people is smillar to
engines and motors. If we don’t do sports, we will be forced to rust, in other
words, decomposition of our body; afterwards, we may have some problems with our
body when we even need to small walk. In addition, sports balance our body’s
blood pressure and circulation. According to many researchs which have been done
by scientists, we can prove the importance of sports for our health because 70%
middle aged people who did not do sports in their youth are now struggling with
the problems such as high tension, trouble with blood circulation, easily become
tired due to the lack of sports.
The second advantage of sports for people is that they are required for our
daily lives and competing at the internatinal area because of enjoyment of
sports. For many years, sports have been done by people. For example, have you
ever thought why people want to play football or other games? The answer may be
easy since sports are entertaining. They are sometimes magics as they catch our
attention and give us pleasure as much as we need. Sometimes overwhelming life
conditions may be unfair and make us unhappy. However, if there is a sport
activity when we are unhappy, we will probably be motivated and be refreshed
again after the sport activity. This should be the most important benefit of
sports because many people do sports for this reason. In addition, have you ever
thought why millions of people watch World Cup match without breathing? There
might be some reasons behind the action of watching football match. The most
important one might be the excitement and enjoyment of sport. Football match is
exhilating because it gives us pleasure to watch. In the pitch and near the
pitch, there are more than 18 men, and they are the representative of our sport
culture. Within the excitment of sports, countries are able to compete in the
international area. Due to this fact people like sports since they and their
countries are able to compete and beat opponent countries and this is the most
important reason to take pleasure from sports.
The final and least advantage of sports is that they are the huge market for
countrie’s economy. First of all, if we look at only football industry. There
are more than thousand professional team and at least these team have 25
players. If this is calculated, there are approximately 25000 players without
working staff, scouts, coaches and managers. This shoud be the largest industry
which employs many people in Turkey. In addition, countries and clubs have to
establish new facilities for sports game. Some of them are the largest buldings
in the entire country that represent countries, for example Ataturk Olympic
Stadium in Turkey. Supplying funds for this buldings may be the publicity of
countries since constructing well designed stadiums help country preapare or
organize big competitons such as World Cup, Olympics, and Tennis Tournaments.
Finally, sports allow advertisement companies to make publicity of strong
brands. For example, sponsorship is one of the best publicity of one company.
Everyone watchs thier favourite team or atlethe, and audiance will probably see
the sponsor of team or atlethe. For example, in England, Manchester United which
is one of the most powerful clubs in international area has a sponsor called
Vodafone. I am from Turkey, and I even know its sponsor. This will probably show
the effectiveness of sponsorship in sports.
All in all, we can conclude that there are several advantages and benefits of
sports. First, sports are required by people to be fit, smart, and good looking.
Second, sports are entertaining due to many facts. Third, sports are the huge
market for countries’ economies. In my opinion, despite sports’ advantages, many
people can’t believe that sports are useful and beneficial. I hope that in the
future these people will tend to be more optimistically to sports since they are
the neccessity of our lives.
