A sport is commonly defined as an organized, competitive, and skillful physical activity requiring commitment and fair play. It is governed by a set of rules or customs. In a sport the key factors are the physical capabilities and skills of the competitor when determining the outcome (winning or losing). The physical activity involves the movement of people, animals and/or a variety of objects such as balls and machines. In contrast, games such as card games and board games, though these could be called mind sports, require only mental skills. Non-competitive activities such as jogging and rock-climbing, are usually classified as recreations. Physical events such as scoring goals or crossing a line first often define the result of a sport. However the degree of skill in some sports such as diving, dressage and figure skating is judged according to well-defined criteria. This is in contrast with other judged activities such as beauty pageants and body-building shows, where skill does not have to be shown and the criteria are not as well defined. Accurate records are kept and updated for most sports at the highest levels, while failures and accomplishments are widely announced in sport news. Sports are most often played just for fun or for the simple fact that people need exercise to stay in good physical condition. However professional sport is a major source of entertainment. Although they do not always succeed, sports participants are expected to display good sportsmanship, standards of conduct such as being respectful of opponents and officials, and congratulating the winner when losing.

Asked by guju4lyfe921 - Sun Mar 15 17:05:02 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Team sports improve cooperation and communication skills in a number of ways. First, you have to learn to work together in order to achieve a common goal. You are all trying to win, hopefully, so this is your common goal. If everyone on the team doesn't cooperate, then no one will be in sync, your plan won't work, and you will lose the game. In relation to communication, everyone on the team has to cooperate and this takes verbal and nonverbal expression of common goals, or communicating verbally and non verbally. Everyone on the team has to be on the same page and this cannot be accomplished unless there is a great deal of communication between every player on the team. This is only a jumping off point, so I hope it's helpful in getting… [cont.] Answered by ryan d - Tue Mar 17 10:08:27 2009 What is the most important record in sports history? Q. I, along with most true sports fans have long considered baseball's homerun record the most hallowed(important) sports record around. Now that all of baseball's stats have been tainted by steriods (especially Barry Binds and the HR record) what do you think is the most impprtant sports record around? Asked by ccccccc - Tue Aug 22 00:02:43 2006 - - 26 Answers - 1 Comments A. Most important? I don't think any sports record is important. Which is most impressive? There's a BIG difference. The most impressive is the record for MOST record setting career home runs. When Babe Ruth set the career Home Run Record, it was like 250. When he finished the career record was 714... so basically he hit about 460 record home runs. He was esentially three times the home run hitter of anyone that had played the game before him. In order to match that record, a player would have to hit about 1200 home runs... which will NEVER happen. Second most impressive? Cy Young's 511 wins. Or maybe it's UCLA's win streak? Johnny Van Der Meer's two consecutive no-hitters? You may not be impressed, but when will ANYBODY throw three… [cont.] Answered by baseballfan - Tue Aug 22 03:43:06 2006 What sport is in each season of high school sports?
