Sport is one of the best things that child can devote his time to. Any sport means physical activity, competing, discipline, building the strong and healthy body, self confidence, having fun and all these things are very important in child's proper development.

Regular physical activity is healthy for young children but also, instead of sitting in front of TV or playing games all day long, this is the place and time where children can gain so much more. Instead of competing in video games, kids will compete in real world, with real people and they will improve their communication skills significantly. We all know that kids today are mostly communicating through SMS massages and other electronic mail. Therefore, sport activities can prevent as well as improve many things.

Discipline and good working habit are skills that are very useful in grown up world. These are actually one of the most required qualities that make a difference in choosing you or someone else. No one wants lazy and irresponsible person to cooperate with. This tells us how much good can sport do for child.

Chris Hanson Mendham says that children that stay in sport for longer can benefit from building strong and healthy body. Health is the most important thing in everyone's life so what is there to explain. The only thing to mention is that sportsmen are very popular with girls so that is not something that we should not take as serious fact.

Self-confidence is one of the things that sport can help to improve as nothing else can. Children who are playing sport, doesn't matter if it is team sport or individual, are constantly put in different situations where they learn to cope with winning, losing, unfairness and all that make them stronger and more confident.

The last thing, the most important of all others that we have mentioned so far is having fun. To have fun while playing any sport is crucial. If child does not have fun, that means that he does not enjoy sport and that he is in this sport for wrong reasons. Maybe he is there because everybody else is there or his parents have ambitions. This is also answer to my question, is sport good for any child? Sport is good for any child who is there willingly, who loves to play that particular sport and who is impatient and passionate every time when he should go to the training and the game.
