Introduction To My Final Essay

Youth Sports are on the rise in America! About one in three youth participate in contact sports. However, the other two thirds of the youth spend more time indoors tied up in sitting activities than in former years, but that creates an unhealthy lifestyle for the youth. Childhood obesity has risen since the former years where kids ride their bikes and play contact sports. It is important that America’s youth begin to form habits that will guarantee a healthy future. Schools that call for mandatory gym classes are in a place to help. Youth sports help children develop strength and endurance, learn cooperation and teamwork, and improve self-confidence. Critics claim that today’s youth risks outweigh the benefits because playing a contact can lead to concussions and other pains on your body. Supporters like myself of youth sports disagree.

Youth sports make invaluable contributions to character development and future success of children by teaching them teamwork, discipline, self-control and triumph over adversity. These years also provide some of the most precious and long-lasting memories parents make with their children. Organized sports are a bulwark against the very real health risks associated with childhood obesity such as diabetes, hypertension and cardiac disease. These benefits are critical to the health and development of our youth and they serve to show the need for a more balanced approach to how we address the safety of our kids playing contact sports. Unfortunately, participation in youth football nationally and high school football in many regions of the country have subst...
