Students Can Benefit from Participating in Sports
9/29/2005

A CNN article dated September 28, 2005 explores how participating in organized sports can benefit students. Parents are encouraged to help their children determine which sport(s) to pursue based on their interests, motivation and skill level. In addition to health benefits, being part of a team sport can also teach children self-discipline, time-management, and how to deal with competition in a constructive manner. Learning new skills and enjoying the process should take priority over winning, especially with younger children.

The article is available at the CNN.com Web site.
