Sports is a worthwhile activity for kids and adults. Not only do they exercise but they also get to gain more friends. The camaraderie between team mates is something which goes beyond just playing. It is playing as a team or having team work. It is not playing against each other but with each other.
For the family, indulging in sports strengthens the bond of kinship. It provides the family members with an opportunity to interact and relate more deeply with each other. It gives them a chance to spend quality time together.
Yes, sports may also mean competition. Individuals do compete with others but the real competition would be in trying to outperform themselves always. It is competing with the self and not with another person.
