Life is impossible without sports. People invented varieties suitable for group games, individual, extreme. In order to systematize the existing sports entertainment, a single all-Russian classification by sports was introduced.
This is not the only taxonomy of sports varieties known:
- Olympic
- worldwide;
- each country has its own.
Who are we playing with
Sports are classified according to the composition of players: individual, team.
Individual types require the athlete to take responsibility for the course and result. The results are entered in individual classification books. How good the result will be is determined by the skills, abilities, physical form of the speaker at the competitions. In individual sport, everyone competes. Coaches point to the objectivity of such competitions, allowing to identify the most prepared, strong person, whose result clearly demonstrates that he deserves an award.
When a team of several people plays, the classification of sports distinguishes the event among the team. A group can have two or more people. Success depends on the contribution of the participants, the interaction within the team determines the result. There are frequent cases when a strong athlete is in a weak team. By all means, pulling the team to victory, he still will not be able to do much alone, so the team will lose. As a result, this very only talented player does not receive any awards or diplomas for his efforts. Some sports allow the medal "For the desire to win" or "For perseverance." A strong player of a weak team counts only on luck in this nomination.
Psychology in sports
The uniform classification of sports pays considerable attention to individual types. They attract numerous spectators, but athletes who choose these disciplines are under strong psychological pressure. Whatever a person does, it will affect the outcome, there is nowhere to wait for help.
If the All-Russian classification of sports defines the game as a team game, that is, two, three, more athletes play, if one participant fails, others hedge him. Of course, a serious blunder negates the efforts of all team members. The ability to work in a group, self-awareness as part of the team - are mandatory requirements for an athlete.
Everything has advantages
Which variety requires psychologically greater stamina is unknown. Long trainings effectively prepare for psychological stress, responsibility, disappointments, however, disruptions are not uncommon among athletes.
Individuals have a chance to try themselves in teamwork: talking about relay races. Maximum return guarantees the success of a person, teamwork leads to the victory of the group in difficult conditions. The relay allows you to shuffle people within the team.
Ambiguous assessment of the all-Russian classification of sports tennis, badminton. These games are simultaneously considered team, individual, as there is a doubles.
Sport: so different
As the sports classification suggests, there are hundreds of sports: now there are more than 200 of them. About 150 are common in Russia. Certain varieties combine several disciplines. Each is characterized by special methods of struggle, the composition of actions, rules of conduct.
Olympic definition of a sport: a type of competitive activity that has developed over a long period of time, has become independent and includes one or more disciplines. The classification of Olympic sports is very important at the global level, since the Olympic Games regularly unite all countries, the entire population of the planet.
