There are those who believe that partaking in sports, that comprises of playing in teams such as football can be advantageous, while some believe in the notion to engage in sports in which the person can play solo such as swimming is a far better option. In this essay I will shed light on both sides of the respective arguments and will entail on my personal belief.

Partaking in sports which involves playing in a group enables people to get acquainted with each other, through which they can discuss their problems and solutions with each other simultaneously at ease. Furthermore, by actively participating in group sports enables them to establish a sense of belonging in a community, as members can form a strong bond with one another and along with their respective families. In my neighbourhood every Saturday afternoon , I would see 11 men coming to play cricket and would bring their families along for a picnic enjoying each other’s company.

However it is not possible for people to be able to participate in group sports. Keeping their physical wellbeing in mind, they resort to engaging in more single based sports activities as there are no pressure of time commitments, as well as it is more self-paced. In addition, participating in individual physical activities allows a person to motivate oneself as it brings on the urge to be resilient and disciplined.

Looking at both ends of the discussion, I believe that it is beneficial to engage in sports that are more of a solo-based nature as it helps that person to be able to deduce their own physical health, and the experiences for them will be more fulfilling.
