Some people believe that sports is an essential part of school life for children, while others feel it should be purely optional. Discuss these opposing views and give your own opinion.

Physical activities have an irrefutable role in the growth of children.

Hence

, some people think that

schools

should be allocated enough money and time for

sports

and enforce

students

to do

sports

although

others believe

this

should be optional. I totally agree with the former view, and

this

essay will discuss both of them.

To begin

with, according to scientific research, it is necessary for younger to have physical activities because of several reasons.

First

of all, playing of any type sport helps

students

to be healthy, and keep away them from a lot of diseases.

Moreover

, these activities because of their functions (interact with different parts of the body) make

students

feel tired and help

students

go to bed early and have a deep sleep which is essential for their brain.

For example

, according to research from Tabriz University,

students

who do more

sports

in their

schools

are stronger against the flu, and

also

, because they have a deep sleep, they have more energy in class in the morning, and it improves their learning abilities.

On the other hand

,

students

usually do not know about the benefits of

sports

or even the drawbacks of doing nothing.

In other words

, if

sports

be optional in

schools

, the

students

because of the lack of knowledge will be reluctant about doing exercise.

Furthermore

,

schools

should have appropriate infrastructure for a lot of

sports

fields.

As a result

,

this

encourages

students

, and they will be free to choose their favourite

sports

for playing.

For instance

, my primary school had a wide range of equipment for several

sports

, so I could say that all of us did our favourite

sports

. In conclusion, in my view,

sports

should be mandatory in

schools

because it improves the health of

students

, and help them to learn better.

Besides

these, the government should provide enough infrastructure for a wide range of

sports

fields in

schools

to encourage

students

to do more

sports

.
