Some people think that as long as these professional sportsmen and sportswomen are good players, their behaviour on and off playing fields are not important. Do you agree or disagree?

Famous athletes who are talented in their areas have a strong influence on the public especially the younger generation.

Therefore

, I disagree with the idea that the behaviour of sports players is not important and I believe that they should be self-disciplined both in and outside the game. In my opinion, it is essential for all sports players to obey the rules on the

. A key purpose of sports rules is to avoid safety issues. If sportsmen and

during games, they might hurt their competitors, team members and themselves. Many great players have to end their professional career due to the injuries and illnesses caused by illegal physical confrontation, which often happens to skilled athletes in soccer and basketball games. Their early retirement is undoubtedly a pity to their clubs, fans and even their countries. It is absolutely important to regulate

players’behavior

on the field in order to protect them from unnecessary damages and losses. As well as on the field, I believe that what sports players do off the playground should not be neglected. Many excellent players are heavily exposed since they have numerous fans all over the world, which means that they can have a huge influence on the public.
