    EDUC 2A

    Answer the following question:


    1. What is Sports?
    2. What are the classification of Sports?
    3. Give at least 20 individual & dual sports.

    ANSWERS
    1. 'Sport' means all forms of physical activity which, through casual or organized
    participation, aim at expressing or improving physical fitness and mental wellbeing, forming
    social relationships, or obtaining results in competition at all levels. It is also known as a
    game, competition, or activity needing physical effort and skill that is played or done
    according to rules, for enjoyment and/or as a job: Football, basketball, and hockey are all
    team sports. I enjoy winter sports like skiing and skating.

    2. There are a number of systems for classifying sports, based on different criteria.
    1. Team – Individual
    Team sports are practised between opposing teams, where the players interact to
    achieve the objective of the game.
    Individual sports are based on one-to-one confrontation or timed races.
    2. Opponent – Achievement
    The objective of opponent sports is to defeat the opponent in combat, court or
    board games.
    Among achievement sports the following categories can be distinguished: target,
    display, strength and endurance.
    3. Environment
    This division is based on the environment where the sport is performed, e.g.
    stadium sports, court games, water sports, etc.
    4. Professional – Amateur
    Professional Sports are conducted for profit by entrepreneurs who pay athletes
    depending on their popularity and performance. Professional sports are regulated by
    leagues or associations that set rules of competition and often are involved in regulating
    the salaries and working conditions of athletes.
    5. Spectator Sports
    A spectator sport is one that is characterized by the presence of spectators at
    matches or competitions. Spectator sports may be professional sports or amateur sports.
    Car racing is one of the most popular spectator sports in the world.
    6. Olympic Sports
    The Summer Olympic Games include 28 sports with 38 disciplines, the Winter
    Games include 7 sports with 15 disciplines. Until 1992, the Olympics also often featured
    demonstration sports. The objective was for these sports to reach a larger audience; the
    winners of these events are not official Olympic champions. These sports were
    sometimes sports popular only in the host nation.
