INDIVIDUAL SPORTS
• It means those sports practices or disciplines that do not
require accompaniment to be carried out, that is, that can
be done alone.
• In them, the competitor does not rival other athletes or
practitioners, but with himself: with his recorded times,
with his total trajectory or with his endurance time, or
with other personal abilities on which the sport in question
depends.
INDIVIDUAL SPORTS
• In this way, the athlete’s goals are set in advance and
have to do with the development of certain skills.
• The opponent and partner of the athlete are himself.
Similarly, self-evaluation and self-discipline are part of
these games, since there will be no one to blame in
case there is no progress.
INDIVIDUAL SPORTS
• Most of the individual sports, thus, consist of a record of the
effort made so that each time can be reached further. For this,
chronometers, length meters, depth meters, targets, among
other methods are used to inform the athlete how close he is
to reaching his individual and personal goal.
