Top Benefits of Playing Sport (part 1)

May 26, 2020 by Janice Simpson

Playing sport can help us feel healthier, fitter, and mentally strong, and that is just the start of it. Sport can also be fun, particularly when played as part of a team or with family and friends.

If you are considering signing yourself and family members up for a sport and need some encouragement, it is worth keeping in mind the many benefits below.

1. Better Sleep

Fast Company suggests that exercise and sport triggers chemicals in the brain that can make you feel happier and relaxed. Team sports provide an opportunity to unwind and take part in an activity that helps you keep fit. If you play sports outside, you can also benefit from fresh air which is proved to promote a good sleep at night.

2. A Strong Heart

Your heart is a muscle which needs frequent exercise to keep fit and healthy. A healthy heart can pump blood around your body efficiently. Your heart will improve in performance as it is regularly challenged with exercise. Stronger hearts can improve overall health of the whole body.

3. New Connections

Sport brings together a mixture of people from different communities, backgrounds, religions and beliefs. Sport can provide a new way to meet others that you might not interact with day to day. Therefore, you can make new friends. And playing a sport may even open new career or business opportunities for you.

4. Improved Lung Function

Regular sport creates more oxygen to be drawn into the body with waste gases and carbon monoxide expelled. This increases the lung capacity, improving lung function and efficiency.

5. Increased Confidence

Training frequently and working towards seasonal goals can help you build your confidence and abilities. This is particularly noticeable through matches and tournaments where you and your team put your skills to the test. Small achievements can build personal confidence over time, giving you the ability to take on new projects with your new-found confidence.
