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
.
