Some people think that it is acceptable for professional sportsmen and sportswomen to misbehave on or off the field, as long as they are playing well. Do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

The popularity of sports is now growing faster than ever before. Some people believe that as long as the

performance

of the

athlete

is superb, their

behaviour

on or off the

field

doesn't matter. I strongly disagree with the statement as their

performance

should not be a primary determinant of their

behaviour

.

First

and foremost, professional

athletes

must perform at their highest level. Professional

athletes

receive high paychecks for their ability to perform at the highest physical level in their assigned team.

Thus

, the

performance

athlete

should not dictate their

behaviour

on or off the

field

.

In addition

, the misbehaviour of the

athlete

on or off the

field

will not only ruin the image of the

athlete

but will

also

ruin the team's image, and put the

athlete

in a predicament.

In addition

to

this

, professional

athletes

are role models for younger children who dream of becoming professional

athletes

themselves.

Therefore

, professional

athletes

misbehaving on or off the

field

is going to allow these young children to think

such

behaviour

is acceptable as long as the

performance

is good.

Such

a way of thinking will result in attitude problems of children.

Thus

, To recapitulate, I adhere to the fact that professional

athletes

contribute a vital role in being outstanding leaders.

Therefore

, their

behaviour

on or off the

field

is essential and should never behave in

such

a way that incorrectly reflects their team and their image.
