Choosing The Right Sport<br />

By Khrista Cendana<br />

www.NewHeightsEducation.org<br />

Sports, sports, sports! When deciding on a sport for a<br />

child to play, there are many things to<br />

consider. Do you want it to be easy or hard? Should the<br />

parent or guardian research the sport<br />

that the kid wants to play? Should the parents be the<br />

one to chose the sport or should the kid<br />

choose? This article will describe some of the benefits of<br />

practicing sports and help you figure<br />

out how to choose one. A sport can be fun for anyone; it<br />

could be a school activity or an after<br />

school activity. What kind of sport do you want to play?<br />

I never really liked playing school sports until high school. It was around senior year that I<br />

watched the anime ​Prince of Tennis ​. It was about a kid who is famous in the tennis world. By<br />

the time I’d decided to play, it was too late as I was already graduating. It wasn’t until my<br />

community college that I decided to play tennis; I was able to be in the beginner and advanced<br />

classes.<br />

BENEFITS OF SPORTS FOR STUDENTS<br />

What are the benefits of sports?<br />

1. Health<br />

2. Social Skills<br />

3. Teamwork<br />

4. Learning - This one isn’t on the list at the link provided, but I put it in because you’ll learn<br />

the different moves in the sport you’ll be playing. For example, in tennis, you’ll be able to<br />

learn the skill called “drop shot” and you can improve it over time.<br />

THE BEST SPORTS FOR KIDS<br />

What are the best sports for kids? How do you know if tennis is the right sport for a child’s age?<br />

The article above suggests sports for kids from under age five to teens. For instance, kids who<br />

are introverted or independent could play:<br />

1. Track and field<br />

2. Tennis<br />

3. Martial arts<br />

4. Golf<br />

5. Horseback riding<br />

6. Dance<br />

The article is true about introverted or independent personalities, as I am introverted and I did<br />

play tennis in college. Reading the article might help some parents or kids decide on what they<br />

may want to do for extracurricular activity.<br />
