Sport
“A sport is an organized, competitive, entertaining, and skillful activity requiring
commitment, strategy, and fair play, in which a winner can be defined by objective means.
Generally speaking, a sport is a game based in physical athleticism. Activities such as board
games and card games are sometimes classified as "mind sports," but strictly speaking "sport" by
itself refers to some physical activity. Non-competitive activities may also qualify, for example
though jogging or playing catch are usually classified as forms of recreation, they may also be
informally called "sports" due to their similarity to competitive games.
Sports are governed by a set of rules or customs. Physical events such as scoring goals or
crossing a line first often define the result of a sport. However, the degree of skill and
performance in some sports such as diving, dressage and figure skating is judged according to
well-defined criteria. This is in contrast with other judged activities such as beauty pageants and
body building, where skill does not have to be shown and the criteria are not as well defined.
Records are kept and updated for most sports at the highest levels, while failures and
accomplishments are widely announced in sport news. Sports are most often played just for fun
or for the simple fact that people need exercise to stay in good physical condition. However,
professional sport is a major source of entertainment.
While practices may vary, sports participants are expected to display good
sportsmanship, and observe standards of conduct such as being respectful of opponents and
officials, and congratulating the winner when losing.:

Sportul este o activitate organizata, competitiva, de divertisment si iscusinta ,care necesita
angajament, strategie, si fair-play , in care un castigator poate fi definit prin mijloace obiective. In
general vorbind, sportul este un joc bazat pe efort fizic. Activitati precum jocurile de carti sau tablele
sunt categorizate ca jocuri ale mintii, dar sensul propriu al cuvantului sport se refera la o activitate
fizica. Jocurile necompetitive precum jogging-ul ori prinselea sunt categorizate ca forme de recreare, dar
pot fi denumite informal sporturi datorita similitudinilor jocurilor competitive.
Sporturile sunt guvernate de un set de reguli si de traditii.
Evenimente precum inscrisul golurilor sau depasirea liniei definesc rezultatul unui sport. Insa,
gradul de performanta si dexteritatea in sporturi, precum scufundatul, dresajaul si patinajul artistic sunt
judecate dupa criteria bine definite. Aceste sporturi sunt in contrast cu activitati precum concursurile de
frumusete si culturismul, unde dexteritatea nu trebuie definita si criteriile nu sunt bine definite.
Inregistrarile sunt pastrate si actualizate pentru majoritatea sporturilor la nivelele cele mai
inalte, in timp ce esecurile si victoriile sunt anuntate pe scara larga la stirile sportive.Sporturile sunt cel
mai adesea jucate doar de dragul distractiei sau pentru simplul fapt ca oamenii au nevoie de exercitiu
pentru a isi mentine o conditie fizica buna . Cu toate acestea sportul profesionist este o sursa majora de
divertisment.
In timp ce practica poate varia, se asteapta de la participantii la evenimente sportive sa afiseze o
buna corectitudine standarde de comportament precum respectul oponentilor si oficialilor, felicitarea
castigatorilor cand pierde echipa favorita.
