Some countries achieve international sports by building specialized facilities to train top athletes, instead of providing sports facilities that everyone can use. Do you think this is positive or negative development?

The approach of several countries to achieve greatness is to construct

sports

infrastructures to train elite

athletes

for international

sports

competitions

instead

of building

sports

facilities

for public use. I believe

this

is a positive development because aspiring

athletes

will be more interested to pursue

sports

and it will encourage people to improve their physical activities.

Moreover

, establishing specialized state-of-the-art

facilities

and equipment will produce

high-caliber

high-calibre

show examples

athletes

that will win numerous awards and medals for the recognition and pride of the country.

This

will

also

inspire more

athletes

because they no longer need to go abroad for training and be away from family and friends.

For instance

, Hidilyn Diaz who is a Filipina weightlifter won the first-ever Olympic gold medal for the Philippines.

However

, she was trained outside of the Philippines because the country does not own world-class

facilities

and expert coaches to be able to help her qualify for tournaments.

Although

the perseverance of an athlete may contribute to winning competitions, it would still require good training

facilities

.

Additionally

, the

facilities

and programs will not only attract

athletes

and

sports

alike but will

also

influence the general public to be involved in

sports

and physical activities. Rather than staying inside the house doing nothing, they will be more encouraged to learn another hobby and change their poor health habits. People will be able to socialize and release their stress from work. In conclusion, building specialized

sports

facilities

is a positive impact because it will attract people to take up

sports

, and the public will be more interested and able to improve their hobbies.
