There are individual sports like swimming and group sports like soccer. All of them have a series of rules that must be respected and met. Those are the rules of the game.
When you play sports to get a trophy or a medal, we talk about competitive sports. In this case, the athlete must train hard to achieve the goal, which is to win.
Sport has many benefits. It helps us strengthen muscles and bones, and in general improves our physical condition and the appearance of our body. Furthermore, exercising entertains and relaxes us, so we will have a good mood during the day, we will be more focused in class and we will sleep better at night.
Sports teach us to strive for things and try to overcome difficulties. We also learn to play with others, to respect the opponent and that although we don’t always win, the important thing is to enjoy the game.
