Participating in PMU Team Sports Helps to Develop Individual
Character
Do you like Participating in team sports and reaching the same goal with others? As any
university, PMU has many of activities that make students participating in team sport and work
together as one person. These types of sports called "team sports" and it is totally deferent from
"individual sports". Some people support the idea of participating with others and they believe
that it helps the individual character for future. On the other hand, there are some people opposes
this idea and they have their reasons to deny it. By the way, all these parties have their own
thoughts and beliefs, but the most logical is always the closest to the truth.
Many of people believe that participating in team sports develop the individual character and
helps the person to discover his personality and makes him more flexibility to work with others.
Also they think that team sports help build character because they teach people discipline, how to
work in a group, and how to have good sportsmanship. They do believe that when the student is
playing sports he interacts with many different types of people with many different attitudes. So
while participating with these types of people he grows. He learns how to deal with all types of
people while participating in sports and he may get more mature.
On the other side, some people have different opinion about team sports, they argue that sports
are strictly for fun, and never build character. They think that sports are wasting of time, and
people who got time should not exploit it by playing sports, they believe that instead of playing
sports the person should do extra homework and study more. Also they say that there are many
of ways to develop individual character, so they think participating in team sports is just for
having fun with others. They do not have any thoughts about the benefits. They just deny any
benefit about sports, that why they don’t imagine that participating in team sports could build
good character.

In my case, I agree with those people who support the idea of participating with others.
Teamwork is a very versatile character trait. It can be used in many parts of life. It helps the
person to be friendly, helpful, and favorable person. Team sports have plenty of benefits, actually
it is one of the best way to build good character, and people who have different thoughts should
be open minded and try to participate with others to see the truth. Some of opponents haven’t
played sports once, so they believe what they haven't tried. They are totally wrong and they
should be open minded enough to accept the idea.
In conclusion, we should believe that Participating in team sports helps the person to develop his
character, and it's not wasting of time. It just depends on the person, even in studying the person
could waste his time without any benefits, so playing team sports is one of activities that help
people's personality. The people who support have a good character and have more experience
than others. They have more flexibility than others, so they could accept the idea without any
obstacles. The person who doesn't accept the idea, he should try playing team sport and all his
thoughts and beliefs will be immediately changed.
