Sports is an integral part of life. Simply defined, it is any kind of activity involving physical exertion and skill in which a team or an individual competes with another team or individual, usually for entertainment, or to win a prize or trophy. The history of sports dates back to the military training existence that was carried out to test the abilities of the people who had been chosen to serve the military. Over time, sports has been integrated into the society and because of all the variations of sports there are, you can hardly find one individual who does not like one kind of sports or the other, be it a young child or an old person.
Talking about the different types of sports, it is impossible to list out all the kinds of sports that exist all around the globe, some of them rather popular, some not so much and only limited to tribe, culture or country. Nevertheless, some of the popular sports that everyone around the world knows include soccer, basketball, baseball, table tennis and golf, with soccer being the most popular and also being played in almost every country around the world.
Over time, sports has moved from being just a professional thing to something anyone can partake in, with the right coaching and the right equipment.
