Top Health Benefits of Participating in Team Sports

November 17, 2020 by Janice Simpson

Team sports help you get in shape and also are a great way to connect people and become part of a larger community. Here are some of the top health benefits of participating in team sports.

Team sports increase overall health

It is necessary to participate in physical activities, particularly for those who spend most of your day sitting at a desk. Every week, you should get at least 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise or 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise in order to avoid chronic diseases such as diabetes, arthritis and heart disease. Joining a local volleyball, football, or basketball league can give you the opportunity to meet those guidelines week by week.

Participating in a team also give you access to health professionals and provides a built-in support system. Teamwork is a great tool for improving your overall health.

Competition improves endurance

Physical activity helps in building endurance and endurance builds cardiac strength. In addition, physical activity builds bone density as well as increases muscle mass, which contribute to optimal health.

Taking part in team sports enhances self-image

Athletes taking in team sports usually have better self-esteem. They also report fewer depressive symptoms, partly thanks to the positive social interactions that team sports create.

Team sports increase happiness in long term

Those who regularly take part in team sports are healthier and feel more satisfied with life. It was found that physical activity such as team sport had a positive influence on the life satisfaction of participants. One of the reasons may be that being a part of a team gives participants a sense of belonging.

Team sports make you smarter

A study found that athletes often have higher GPAs than non-athletes. Another study also found a strong distinction between athletic performance and the ability to track different objects at the same time. The skills you need to play a team sport are similar with the skills you need to drive a car or monitor complex dynamic activities.
