WOMEN AND SPORTS

One of my highlights for high school was playing volleyball and I would start looking forward to practice at breaktime which was about ten to after classes at four when trainning started! The volleyball field was a place for me to unwind and shout and just be myself.
It is true that not many women,compared to men,are involved in sports and this is very sad.Sports enhances unity through teamwork;it creates a forum for interaction and as a result people are able to learn from each other and the most beautiful thing is that exercises are great for relieving tension and stress!
Most women are usually involved in many activities that they hardly have time to do other things like sports.I think in such situations,women can take up jogging in the morning or evening for at least half an hour as this is better than no exercise at all.This is an interesting topic but im afraid I havent much to say about it.

It is sad that girls are not encouraged to play sports. Girls who play sports are less likely to get pregnant as teens, more likely to do better in school, less likely to use drugs, and more likely to graduate. Women who play sports stay healthy (my grandmother played golf until she was 91!). In the USA, there is an excellent law, Title X, which requires public schools and public universities to spend the same amount on women’s sports as they do on men’s sports—it has been a WONDERFUL boon to girls and women playing sports in the USA!
