Some countries achieve international sports by building specialised facilities to train top athletes, instead of providing sports facilities that everyone can use. Do you think this is positive or negative development? Discuss both views and give your opinion.

In

this

competitive world, all the countries try to give the best

support

for their

athletes

, even though the government should spend a lot of money to train the player.

However

, others think that it is better to build

sports

facilities

for the public rather than just for

athlete

training. There are not only benefits but

also

drawbacks for countries that spend much of their

budget

on preparing

athletes

for international championships. I do believe that allocating a

budget

for player training is worthwhile ,especially for the

country

's pride. First and foremost, the advantage of building specific

facilities

for

athletes

' training is to

support

them to be well prepared before the international game. It is fact that excellent

facilities

and training help

athletes

to have outstanding performances in championships and reach medals. As the result, winning the international

sports

competition is essential for the

country

's pride in the global community. Taking an example, badminton

athletes

in Indonesia get a lot of

support

from the government which helps them to focus on the competition so they can be winners in the championship.

On the contrary

, the disadvantage is normally government spend a lot of money on

athlete

training. Meanwhile, the

budget

can be allocated for building

sports

facilities

which are more accessible to society.

For instance

, providing a gym and

sports

yard which is free access for all ages.

This

idea will be more impactful for citizens to

support

them in having good habits in

sports

. To summarize, the positive is to prepare the

athlete

to reach the medals which can boost the

country

's pride,

nevertheless

, the negative is the cost of

athlete

training which is too much and can be allocated for building public

facilities

.

Nonetheless

, I think the

budget

for

athlete

facilities

is worth the

country

's bargaining position in the global community.
