In many parts of the world there is continuous coverage of sports on television. Some people believe this discourages the young from taking part in any sport themselves. Discuss this view and give your own opinion.

The craze of

sports

is ever-rising all around the globe and

television

has acted as a catalyst for increasing viewership of the different

sports

.

However

, many people have an opinion that,

due to

this

rise in viewership,

children

are not taking an active

part

in

sports

. In my opinion,

this

is not the case and I feel

due to

the increase in the telecast of

sports

more teenagers are actively participating in them.

To begin

with, live streaming of

sports

binds people to the edge of their seats as the sport are very much exciting, but, these

also

have some negative consequences.

Firstly

, getting entertainment

while

sitting in one place in a comfort zone, discourages young ones to play

sports

as they have to work hard.

For instance

, in my ,home there is a large projector connected to the T.V. By which I can watch cricket on a large screen which gives me a lot of joy, but I don't like to play it as it requires much hard work and dedication.

Thus

, these are one of the reasons why

television

discourages

children

to take active participation in

sports

. In my opinion, I feel that

,

Remove the comma

apply

show examples

due increase in the live streaming of

sports

, more and more young

children

are attracted to take

part

in different kinds of

sports

as it is fun and if you reach the topmost level you can earn a name

as well as

fame.

For example

, cricket is like religion in my country and almost 90% of kids want to become a cricketer at a young age their idols are Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli,and M S Dhoni who are huge icons in my country and their popularity, urge kids to take

part

in cricket and like that football has Ronaldo, Messi, Pele which attracts the

children

to actively involve in

sports

.

Therefore

, I feel, that

sports

telecasts increasing on

television

, enable

children

to play

sports

rather than just watch them on TV.

To conclude

, I don't think forecasting

sports

on

television

will discourage

children

to not play

sports

, but I feel the opposite of it and it actually encourages

children

to take

part

in different

sports

as the marketing of

sports

is done through it.
