Leisure, recreation and/or sport play a major role in our society, through

social,mental,and health aspects. It is a proven fact that exercising and sports are quality factors

in keeping a healthy lifestyle both physical to mental. For most people the most effective and

effective way to get exercise on a day to day basis is simply through recreation and sports. There

are multitude of aspects in the recreation sector that can create a positive impact in people's lives,

including Skateboarding, Surfing, Football, Soccer, Clubs, Gym, or basically anything that gets

you active. Personally, I am extremely interested in becoming a part of this field because I firmly

believe in its ability to create a positive impact in people's lives. I find this particular field to

spike my interests more than others because I see myself being able to turn these things I love to

do into my own profitable business.Throughout my life my parents have taught me to use leisure,

recreation and sports to make friends, keep a healthy attitude and to stay fit. The job that fits my

future plans within Recreation and Sports Management is to be a Skateboard contract negotiator.

I've always used skateboarding to cope with my stress, anxiety and mental wellbeing. But it also

brings me excitement, entertainment, and a social life along with a community. This profession

is a very competitive one as it’s usually solely based on the athletes performance and attitude,

which brings a lot of possible jobs to the table along with creating a stronger sporting community

as athletes have a lot of respect for their competitors. I believe that one of the most important

aspects of this field is ensuring that the athletes are receiving fair treatment along with them

feeling welcome and like family. While ensuring the best deals for them financially and ethically.
