Sports are more than just a game, they truly are a way of life. The character that one builds playing a sport is something that they can carry with them throughout their life. The commitment, determination, and teamwork that one learns is not just important for the sport, but also for life. The feeling that one feels when they kick their first football or pick up their first cricket back is something that they can take with them for the rest of their lives. The rush of excitement in nerves in your first match, learning how to win, and of course learning how to lose. These are just a few of the positive aspects that playing a sport can have on a person. Sports also help to keep your body fit, healthy, and happy, all while having fun. There are so many different kind of sports, from shooting, to cricket, to wrestling, that no matter what you should find something that suits you. And if you are worried that sports might not be your thing, there is nothing wrong with just putting on your sneakers to go for a run, a jog, or even a walk. As long as you are getting out there and staying active, that is all that counts, and it doesn’t really matter how you do it.
Today we live in a cultural where sports are losing their meaning, and people seem to be forgetting how much sports can do for them. 7 out of 10 of India’s youth are drug addicts, this is why India’s largest coupon portal, has created a campaign around the phrase ‘Get high on sports, not drugs’. CupoNation has gathered some of India’s most inspiring athletes such as Atul Wassan, Shiba Maggon, Sushil Kumar and Gagan Narang, to create a video about what sports mean to them. CupoNation has also organized great deals so you can get all of your sports equipment for a great price! So go check out the video on their site, and get out there and get active!
