Sport in our life

Sport plays an important role in the life of many people.

It makes people healthier and it s a good way of spending free time.

Sport is good for health, but only if you are sport-lover. Professional sportsmen have a lot of injuries. A lot of people in Russia heard about the young Russian gymnast Masha Zasipkina who fell during coaching and injured her spine. It was a year ago. She was paralyzed, she had surgery and now she feels O. K. But she would never go to the gymnastic stage again.

One of the least dangerous kinds of sport is swimming. You can t break your spine, leg, hand, etc. Of course, someone can say that you can sink in the swimming-pool, but I think it is less probable then breaking your nose in basketball. In Russia is very long and cold, so people can t afford to spend a lot of time in the fresh air. But if it is not very cold skiing and skating are a good way to stay fit.

If you ask anyone about health, practically all the people will say that sport influences health, and all people should do sport. It can be not only tennis, basketball and hockey but it also can be something like dancing, walking, etc. Sport in Russia plays a large role, and there are a lot of kinds of sport which are new for Russian people.
