[quote=Anonymous]Sports are a meritocracy of sorts: if you can play you can play. Originally in US Irish were discriminated against. My Irish dad ( he would be over 100 if alive today) got into big time university only because he was a great football player and track star even though he was a very bright student. He was one of the very few Catholics at that time. I have made sure my daughters and grandkids try all kinds of sports and develop the ones they like, just like I want them all to play a musical instrument and learn a foreign language. Sports can contribute to self-confidence and learning team work. And if a team looses they help learn resilience.[/quote]
