Sport is a fundamental hobby (or a career) for an individual to spend their time efficiently and ameliorate themselves productively. The interest of being engaged in sports, as well as other activities, commences at an early age, in the approximate period of school and is provoked intensively later, at university. This becomes a key reason for the presence of school and university sports competitions, allowing students to sense tranquility and fresh air, whether outdoors or indoors, completing tasks, such as running around a circle three or four times. By believing in the importance of sports, some multitudes claim that the principles and other leaders of universities should take allocating money to activities and races in accordance with sport into consideration as much as they do to libraries. I would, indeed, support the idea of sports games and interactions deserving the same “treatment” like other categories of additional subjects do, as students would feel and be healthier through simple tasks, which may affect their understanding of other subjects in an efficient way.

Undoubtedly, almost every school and university director has provided their students with enormous-sized libraries, in which “one could be lost.” After or before school, they could visit there as frequently as they want, stay there peacefully, read some books, and sometimes even borrow them, given liked. However, the percentage of universities having constructed sports zones for basketball or football or held competitions across the world is relatively low, which, as a result, may weaken the special interests of an individual. They would more likely not to even think about playing some sports, as they have never witnessed the atmosphere, the buzzing flutes of coaches, screeching sounds throughout a match, screams that occur when the score point is renewed, etc. If that individual, for instance, were to understand what playing sports at universities felt like, it would be more chanceful for that person to turn out as a fan, rather than those who have never had a chance to. On the other hand, while doing some tasks, including running, jumping, and stretching, a student might feel more relaxed, bypassing the “stress” caused by overwhelming exams, and stay healthy and in shape. Hence, it is important for universities to have invested in sports activities to amplify the average rate of health and relaxation, in addition to the fact that a person might even be obsessed with one of them afterwards.

However, some university coaches take P.E. too seriously, as if it were a life-changing situation provided that a student, to illustrate, fails to run over an expected distance. Even though physical education has more benefits than drawbacks, the teacher responsible for the children at the time of the class should not be thinking of anything else, except for keeping the fact in mind that those children are also part of humanity, and not all of them may be able to overcome harsh conditions and assignments, or that they might feel gruelling in the aftermath of restless practices “for the big day.” Unfortunately, most schools and universities have these kinds of teachers who put scoring the best result more forward than any other thing, which generates doubts about more investment in this sector, as some principles think, not to deteriorate the system. Not only teachers, but also children themselves might be the main problem about this issue, since they care excessively about winning over their opponents, which reciprocates the meaning of putting money into sports and turns it into thinking only about a match in other classes. Consequently, the feeling of trying to always win and caring about it unhealthily makes students and, surprisingly, also teachers a profound profusion of adrenaline that leaves the ones that want to make changes in doubt.

In conclusion, it is crucial for a university to have a sparse area for sports and countless dates for matches; however, it is also important not to forget that sports do not have the deservedness to be in the first place, which is for health in terms of physicality and mentality. No matter how much playing with sports can boost happiness by releasing dopamine, caring too much about it, instead, hinders the whole meaning of it, which might be one of the reasons for a university’s students, or a school, not to have participated in a sports race before.
