These days, sports provide athletes and companies with high salaries and high profits, and it has become a lucrative business for them. I believe that this is a positive development for sports for several reasons that I will mention in this essay.
The primary benefit is that it will enhance athletes’ performance. If sportspeople receive high salaries, they are less likely to struggle with monetary predicaments, increasing their concentration on training. In other words, if they face financial problems, they have to work part-time, which can hinder their productivity. for example, Ronaldo is a football player who earns almost 100 million dollars per year, allowing him to focus on his training, and making him a role model for teenagers, which can lead to development in that kind of sport.
Moreover, the other positive impact on sports is that it can help increase the fan of sports and expand it internationally. When sports are sponsored by large companies, they can not only provide them with high-quality facilities but they can also show them to other nations by advertising. Advertising can help companies make their brands more popular, which can lead to an increase in the number of fans. For instance, if football players use the specific brand of their company such as Nike shoes, they will not only advertise that brand but they will also attract more fans to their sport.
In conclusion, I firmly convince that commercialism brings benefits for sports as it can boost the productivity of athletes due to overcome financial burdens, and have a positive impact on companies because they can develop the image of their brands, leading to enhancements in infrastructure for sports players, and becoming international their sports.
