The author of the article titled “Are Sports Drinks Healthier Than Soda? Teens Think So” opposes their opinion and I highly agree.

Most teenagers tend to think that sugar water with artificial flavoring is more beneficial than regular drinking water, but

f you are looking for a new exciting sport to take up then it can be twice as much fun if that sport happens to be brand new itself.

There is no doubt that there are positive but like everything else with every positive there is a negative. This has become a prevalent issue with 38% of children participating in organized sports by middle childhood (Papalia, 2015).

I love sports, plain and simple. It doesn’t matter if I am playing, coaching, watching, or talking about sports, I just want to constantly be around them. I have found the lessons of life sports can create, like a unique culture of work ethic, and the never-ending process of learning to how to react to winning and losing, can’t be easily replicated.

I think more people should join the Falls City Swim Team because swimming is very fun and it is great exercise. When I ask people if they would like to join the swim team I usually say “It is like track but in the water”. And I also say "It gets you ready for all the others sports you could play like volleyball, basketball, football, track, or cross country”. Swimming is really fun to do and really
itself can be a dangerous sport to compete in. Although the act of wrestling isn’t the most dangerous part of the sport in general. Wrestling can be extremely stressful since a simple mistake can allow a novice wrestler to beat an All-American (someone who makes it to the final 8 in the national wrestling tournament). Sports have been an important part of my life, and wrestling is no different than the rest. Stress can be a scary thing to think about when talking about sports, and the stress it puts
