Large companies often use sporting events to advertise their products. Some people believe that this has negative effects on sports. I agree this opinion because advertise can cause some problems.
On the one hand, advertising can have negative effects on sports. Some companies promote products such as fast food, soft drinks and other unhealth items. When these products are advertised during popular sports events, young people may become more interesting in buying them. Another problem is that sport can become more focused on money than the competition itself. For example, some teams may choose sponsors mainly because they offer more money. As a result, the real purpose of sport may become less important.
On the other hand, large companies can give a lot of financial support to sports. Organising competitions, paaying athletes and maintaining stadiums are expensive. Sponsorships money can help teams and athletes cover these costs. It can also help young and less successful athletes develop their skills. For example, a company can facilities and equipment. The companies can play an important role in the development of sports.
In conclusion, I agree that commercial advertising can have a negative impact on sport, especially when unhealthy products are promoted.
