When you were a high school student, what sport club did you try to belong to? Someone would you say they would join in the track team, someone would say they would join in the soccer team. There are two types of clubs: individual and team competitions. I think that not many people want to competition individually. On the other hand, many do not want to compete as a team. why are there so many of these people? Many people think that doing things in a group adds a lot of hassle. However, there are many positive effects of playing a team sport on young people in the long run.
Team sports helps make many friends. It may be tricky, but it also brings good things in its wake. It can make a lot of friends and find someone who fits your needs. Maybe that could become a long-time best friend. In fact, I found many friends and best friends on the club team that I am still close to after 9 years. In addition, you can rejoice and encourage together. The joy gained from working together with teammates is many times greater than the joy gained alone. Furthermore, rivals can do it within the same team, so they can enhance each other.
Next, you can develop cooperative skills. I think that what is important in team sports is not only technical skills but also good rapport. In order to get along with a large number of people, we need to care for each other. Also, if you act individually when you’re working as a team, you know you’re going to get angry. In the situation, the cooperation gained will be very useful in life in society. People often required to live in groups at school and at work. If you have cooperation skills, you can build good relationships.
Finally, people can be active in situations outside of the club as an adult. For example, PTA table tennis and volleyball tournaments or parent-child recreation, etc. even if you don’t want to do these things, it’s hard to avoid this kind of interaction as an adult. if you were a track and field athlete and still quick on your feet as an adult, you might find it useful in many situations, such as sports day. However, as people get older, their feet don’t keep up and they more concerned with not cooking up than with speed. In contrast, many team sports require skills, many of which are ingrained in the body and can be utilized even when you’re no longer young.
To summarize, people can make many friends and find your best friend, foster cooperation, and have ability to use it as an adult. There are a number of positive effects of playing a team sport eventually. The more people involved, the more work you have to do, but the more you can experience many different forms of things you can’t do alone. Lastly, I recommend you to play basketball! It could make your life more enjoyable.
