… Sport…
“Sport is an English word (appeared in 1532) which means fun. (…) At the beginning this word meant free fun, but today it means the set of individual or group games and physical exercises which are played for leisure, but also for competition (…) The old meaning survives, however, in the saying “to do something for sport””.
… and therefore…
Sport is a word that takes on different nuances depending on the geographical area, nationality, language, culture, social class…
In fact, sport can be played anywhere and by anyone in the World!
Children, teenagers, adults, the elderly… Sport can be played at any age… Sport can be played at any latitude in the World.
This is because sport is passion, sacrifice, dedication…
… this is because…
Sport strengthens you: it makes you improve your body, your performances, your recoveries, your reflexes…!
Sport stimulates you: it makes you set goals, challenges, competitions…!
Sport gratifies you: it makes you pleased, satisfied, happy…!
Sport integrates you: it makes you relate to a group, to a team, to different cultures…!
Sport welcomes you: it makes you stay away from crime, from malfeasance, from the street…!
…
And this is why sport should be an important part of our life, to which we should devote a minimum of our time (if possible).
Today, there are many sports that can be played…, many players…, many competitions…, many competitors…!
To each one their sport!
To each one the most suitable sport… To each one the most adequate sport… To each one the most appropriate sport… To each one the most favorite sport…!
Whatever it is the physical condition, the illness, the time, the passion or any other “supposed limit” there is a sport that can be played, supported, loved…!
Individual games, team games, board games, street games, games without borders, Olympic games, Paralympic games, and many more!
There are dozens of national and international organizations that make sport playable by everyone and at all levels… There are dozens of companies that make it even playable at home through video games…!
This is because sport brings so many benefits to people and society. Hence, physical activity is important and possible!
Therefore, you don’t necessarily have to be an athlete…, you don’t necessarily have to be in shape…, you don’t necessarily have to be within the ability…, you don’t necessarily have to be up to it…!
The important thing is to move!
Even if only for a few minutes a day…, even if only on alternate days…, even if only once a week…, even if only a few times a month… Just move!
Because sport is health, well-being, passion, integration, salvation… Because Sport is life!
