 HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS
Example of Persuasive Text

High school sports have a powerful influence to every student in different ways. Sports are considered an effective way for
students to maintain health. The students who are active in sports can get the most out of their high school years. There are many
reasons why sports influence students. Some of the reasons are health, teamwork, and self-discipline.
The first reason is health. Sports and health are heavily connected. Exercises help burn calories in the body, reducing the chances
of obesity. The stress caused by exercise on the muscles, bones, ligaments, and tendons makes the students strong and healthy. The
performance and endurance of the heart muscles will improve thus improving its efficiency and decreasing the risk of heart diseases.
Exercise triggers the use of sugar in the blood. The glucose is converted into energy hence, balancing the blood sugar. Sports also fight
against cancer and other lifestyle diseases.
The second reason is teamwork. Teamwork is key to success. In sports, a student should have to collaborate with other team
members to win—the same with academic success. A student needs to work hand in hand with teachers and fellow students for
him/her to succeed. Moreover, employers are interested in hiring employees who can work together with other employees to achieve
a common goal. Teamwork skills are among the other requirements to secure a job.
The third reason is self-discipline. In sports, the student has to follow the rules. He/She has to obey his/her coach. While other
students are idle thinking of drugs and alcohol, a student who is active in sports is training, and he/she has no time for illegal drugs
and some destructive addictions. A student can reach his or her potentials with discipline. Time management is learned in sports too.
High school sports have a significant influence on students. Sports would help the students become healthy and fit. The students
who are active in sports would also develop teamwork skills and self-discipline, which are both essentials for life’s success.
