Score!Sport, according to the Oxford Dictionary, can be defined as an activity involving physical effort and skill in which an individual or team competes with one or more others for entertainment. Sport may seem like just a five-letter word, but it has the power and ability to teach humanity fundamental and intellectual life lessons. In my talk, I will explore these vital lessons, such as failure, success, perseverance, teamwork, tolerance, responsibility and discipline, showing how each lesson can be learned and used. Success goes hand in hand with failure. “You win some, you lose some” is a famous quote that sums up one of the essential elements of life, as these two components are part of the daily life of every human being. Likewise, they are part of every sporting event. In life, everyone strives for success, but we don't always achieve success instantly; it often takes many failures before you can achieve success. Humphrey says that sports “bring out the worst in people,” and yes, failure is where the worst comes out in people, because many people hate the feeling of failure. However, no matter what you fail, they will always express their bad side, for example: when you fail in your job, when you fail your license, etc. Sports is the best opportunity for people to learn the benefits and necessity of failure, thereby allowing their view of failure to change, which in turn corrects the behavior that accompanies failure. Sport also allows you to feel the feeling of accomplishment that comes from success. It therefore teaches athletes how to better cope with the athlete's responsibility to ensure that they do not cheat. However, Humphrey recognizes the problem of cheating in sports. However, in life there are also people who cheat the system and do not obey the laws. This therefore allows athletes to learn how to deal with cheaters and to better understand how to approach the situation when faced with such faults. In conclusion, it is clear that sport has a positive influence on athletes, spectators and the world as a whole. as a whole because it teaches imperative life lessons and allows its participants to experience pleasure, fulfillment and gratification. As mentioned earlier, the sport allows its players to bring out the best in others and create unity between groups, with teamwork being essential. This highlights my opinions in conjunction with those of Joe Humphrey.: 672
