Um, because they're athletes? If they didn't participate in sports, they wouldn't be athletes.\n\nIf you mean why PEOPLE participate in sports, there are lots of reasons: the exercise, the fun, the need to compete,

Learning teamwork & building good character. It keeps you in shape & helps you with problem-solving. It also gives a healthy competitive appetite. You learn that putting aside petty differences off the court to work towards something bigger than yourself. You learn to help & be there for your fellow teammate. There's many benefits with lots of sports.

We were the olympic champions in Hockey once upon a time but then we have been pushed backwards. \nMany sports activities and athletic activities are not yet encouraged so much but it is not as if there is NO ENCOURAGEMENT at all. Slowly it is being built up but much more needs to be done.\nRight from young age talents have to be located , selected and state has to take the responsibility to give them training and proper type of food etc etc.\nIf individuals are to come up as in cricket it does not happen in games like football.

Le dopage ?? A bannir !!!! Le sport permet de se surpasser et se défouler. Faire de la compétition et se doper sont pour moi en contradiction : gagner n'est plus lié au dépassement de soi mais à une prise de "cachetons" et de produits qui sont censés décupler les forces. Pourquoi faire du sport alors ??? A savoir aussi que de grands sportifs sont "restés sur le carreau" suite aux prises de produits dopant alors entre faire du sport et se détruire, j'ai choisi !!!

Try communications and attempt to become a reporter for that team, a broadcaster, or media technology. A lot of pro sport teams have these in order to keep their company running and the guys playing. In addition, they want highly trained people in order to fulfill these goals.

Yes atheletes are getting better. If you look at it, atheltes today have an advantage because if the get sick or hurt, we have better doctors and medicine that can help them get better. Plus, we have better teaching(like in baseball, better coaches to teach the best swing), and better ways to train. So yes, players are getting better all the time.

salut, moi j'habite en Egypte et je pense que si un sport se developpe dans certains pays, cela veut dire que la fédération s'en donne les moyens et réalise que son élite de joueurs de hand ont un potentiel élevé. De plus souvent certains sport sont a l'image des pays qui les ont colonisés (Rugby-->Afrique du Sud) donc par rapport a l'historique du sport, des pays fondateurs etc.. tu peux t'informer. Dans le club ou je vais il y a pleins de terrain de Handball et les jeunes qui s'entrainnent commence très tot ( 6 ans).

the main reason is, get ready..........\n\nthey need instant gratification.  not enough scoring, the most commonly used excuse.  look at all the other sports.  i am american and love the sport.  i played it all my life.  one day, americans will get it.  it's the best sport in the world.  you need to be athletic, passionate, hard-working, and most of all, smart.

Individual sport because you have more honor in yourself unlike winning a championship with a team. It's because it's easier to win a championship with a team like for example in basketball you can be a non-productive player and at the same time play for a very good team. All it shows is that you're in luck for being with the perfect team but it shows nothing for yourself.

because they are not a sportsman team, they play dirty.  They constantly trip and make nasty plays, especially when they start losing. they also dont play like a team, a lot of their players hog the ball, and think they can score from anywhere.

You're third word in your question is the answer...because they are MEN!\n\nI know exactly what you're asking, and why you're so confused...they play because they can, but I also think its because they're less comfortable with commitment than we are.\n\nNot much to do about that except accept them as they truly are, and hope all goes well!

Because it isn't a sport. It's a way of life.

it takes a long time to organise and for all the nations to prepare and compete........\n\nit incidentally also reduces the chances of a successful team immediately repeating their success on the strength of players alone.....   very healthy for the competition and the sport in general.......
