“Sports” is one of the mist discussed topics in India. We love to discuss about Cricket, Football , Badminton . The euphoria in our eyes whenever we talk about Finals and Semifinals of Sports is a treat to watch. However since a long time sports was just treated as entertainment and people always chose sports as a hobby. A lot of people have often refrained themselves from taking up sports as a main career. This has happened due to a several reasons.
Lack of availability of proper facilities
A lot of youngsters had to give up on their dreams of sports because there are lack of several opportunities. Absense of sports ground , proper coaches and even lack of mere encouragement has deviated a lot of youth from taking up Games as a career Option.
However nowadays after the proper portrayal of sports in the mainstream media a good portion of the youth have found interest in sports. Be it the amazing batting skills of Virat Kohli , or the boxing skills of Mary Kom every sport is now being shown in the main stream media. The availability in sports ground , coaches and academies have slowly increased over the years. Moreover several sports people are now representing India in several national as well as Intertnational Platforms.
A lot of parents have now taken interest in sports and have understood that it can be a “Sole” career option. There are several schools and colleges that now give scholarships to students who are well acquainted with sports. Thus Sports is not only becoming a career option but also of one the few career options that can bring you a lot of fame and respect.
