PTE Solved Essay sports and games create disturbance in students life

Sports and games create disturbance in students’ life because students cannot fully concentrate on their studies. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

 

Any person you know will instantly admit that student life is the most enjoyable period in one’s life. This carefree phase on one’s life is sometimes fraught with certain kinds of stress and difficulties. A student will have to balance studies with extra-curricular activities such as sports and arts to lead a balanced life and be happy as a person, and also grow up to be a well-balanced adult.

A student should always even out academic activities (or studies) with sports and arts activities to ensure there is all round intellectual and physical development. Playing competitive sport such as football, cricket or track will promote healthy physical development in the student. And taking such sports to state or national level will actually create a brand new career for the student based on physical ability alone.

If the same sports activities are overdone by the student, and/or prioritized over actual studies then it may have a detrimental effect on the education of the student. The student may get overly fatigued from playing sports and may doze off in class. He may also miss class entirely, just to attend practice sessions for the sport in question. This should not happen.

A great example for both the scenarios mentioned above are the stories of most cricketers in India who had succeeded at cricket at a national level while still being good at studies (Anil Kumble, Rahul Dravid). There are also several cases of parents or students themselves nursing unrealistic aspirations of turning pro at their sport, at the cost of compromising or giving up on studies altogether and is not a healthy path for a student.

To lead a fulfilling life as a student, a person will have to first take care of study commitments and only then allow time to pursue sports. If the student is extremely skilled at the sport of his choice, then at least the minimum requirements for studies in terms of exam performance should be met. In the end, a student will have to balance sports and academic activities in their student life to make the most out of the educational phase of their life. This will lead the student to grow into a strong, confident and well-educated adult.
