Some countries invest in specialized sports facilities for top athletes but not for the average person. Is this a positive or a negative development?

Some governments around the world try to build new sports

facilities

for professional athletes rather than building common sports

facilities

for the community .

Although

with

this

, developing

countries

would able to produce international sporting

stars

, it is very unlikely that

this

development would help the uplifting the

health

of the common man .

Hence

,

this

writer believes ,

this

new development is more positive than negative and in the following essay , he is going to discuss it

further

.

To begin

with , sport is an important component of human life and some

countries

try to gain popularity and pride over other

countries

by producing big sporting personalities .

Moreover

, to produce these international sporting

stars

,some

countries

would invest billions and they made new modernized sporting complexes for practising their sporting

stars

. To illustrate

this

, Americans have invested billions of dollars to build new sporting complexes to produce new athletes and they have been able to achieve their goal by winning most golds in the Olympics.

On the contrary

, most people oppose

this

concept claiming that

this

money would be used to develop common sporting

facilities

, that can be used to improve the physical

health

of common people.

Furthermore

, by improving the physical

health

of their citizens, most

countries

would be able to reduce their mortality rate due to heart diseases and reduce the

health

cost .

For example

, according to a report published by the World

Health

Organization , in 2018, Finland was able to reduce their mortality following heart attacks by 50% compared to the previous decade , mainly by improving the sporting

facilities

for their citizens. In conclusion , even though some

countries

would able to develop international athletic

stars

by providing specialized training

facilities

to them , most would suggest improving common sporting

facilities

for the public , which invariably improve the public

health

of a country .

Hence

,

this

writer strongly believes that the negative development of governments invest to improve individual sporting personnel than the public in whole is, far more than its positive developments .
