Some companies sponsor sports as a way to advertise themselves. Some people think it is good, while others think there are disadvantages to this. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

The advertising industry has been growing very rapidly and

companies

are not sparing any place to promote their

products

. Sponsoring

sports

has been proven to be a very effective way of promotion. Some people expound that sponsoring

sports

for advertisements is good whereas some people are against it.

However

, I support sponsoring

sports

for advertisements has more benefits. In the paragraphs to follow, I will discuss both sides and put forth my opinion. On the one hand, sponsoring

sports

is beneficial for both

companies

and

players

.

For instance

,

Companies

can provide equipment to

players

that they can not afford on their own,

consequently

players

can focus on their game

instead

of worrying about financial arrangements.

Companies

can showcase their

products

during

sports

and link their name with

players

. Sponsoring

sports

gives them media exposure to

companies

and their

products

.

On the contrary

, it has many cons

also

associated with it. Sometimes,

companies

advertise

products

which are harmful to health

such

as tobacco. In case, a player linked with the company is not in good form,

then

it impacts product sales as well. In case, a player is involved in drugs or other wrong activities, it

also

impacts the company's brand value. To conclude, sponsoring

sports

is helpful for the growth of

companies

and

players

and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Although

there are several disadvantages associated with it, organizations and governments can take proper measures and follow procedures to overcome and avoid these. I believe, sponsoring

sports

for advertisements is more beneficial.
