Sports are a great asset for us all. These include a number of outdoor games and indoor games.
The basic utility of games is undoubtedly helping us to maintain our body, beautiful and healthy. All children for example with delicate and fragile body frames should be encouraged, and if necessary, even forced to play games.
Sports also play a vital role in infusing discipline in players. A sportsman while at the field has always to act according to the rules of the game, with set norms of discipline of the game.
A sportsman on the games field also develops a sense of selflessness and a fellow feeling. He learns that no matter what position he holds in the games field, he often has to sacrifice for his fellow players. Victory if achieved is a credit to be shared by all the players equally.
Another great quality that sportsman imbibe is his acceptance with a smile the mistakes and drawbacks of other players of his team. This makes a sportsman very accommodating and considerate.
The greatest of all qualities in a sportsman is the quality of his having a sportsman’s spirit. He learns how to win with grace, and also to lose with cheer. This understanding of the spirit of the game makes a sportsman a little different from all others.
We have a lot in praise of sports but, that does not mean that, sports are without any disadvantages.
