The Importance Of Coach Boone's Methods

152 Words1 Page

Coach Boone’s methods are by no means for the faint of heart or the weak minded. An unbending drive for perfection is a load that few people have the mental fortitude to bear and Herman Boone makes it look easy. There are few things that motivate a person to hold onto a ball or to memorize their plays like the idea of running a mile after every small mistake. There are many who may believe that Coach Boone’s methods are too harsh, but those people probably have never been in a situation where they have actually needed to push themselves beyond their assumed braking point in order to succeed. For example, after participating in a sport like wrestling one begins to grasp the idea of putting the end goal if front of physical well being.

  • The Negative Impact Of Competitive Sports On Children

    1262 Words  | 6 Pages

    Children experience more harmful negative impacts, rather than beneficial positive ones, such as being at a constant risk of severe injury, wanting to opt out of sports early, and being under high levels of stress and anxiety. These impacts could lead to children being injured for an extended amount of time, children being inactive and unfit later in life, children dropping out of school, and many other catastrophic circumstances that children should not have to put up with. The opposing side suggests that children who participate in competitive sports experience positive impacts, such as staying healthy and in shape, and having positive psychological benefits. In some instances, these impacts may be true, however families with a child athlete opted for fast food, ready-made meals more than those of families who did not have a child athlete. Also, while competitive sports provide some psychological benefits, it has also been proven that they can cause stress, anxiety, and ultimately, attrition for the young athlete.
