What is meant Sports and recreation
             Can be defined as activities engaged in for the purpose of relaxation, health and wellbeing or
             enjoyment with the primary activity requiring physical exertion, and the primary focus on
             human activity.
             Recreation is an activity of leisure, leisure being discretionary time. The "need to do something
             for recreation" is an essential element of human biology and psychology. Recreational activities
             are often done for enjoyment, amusement, or pleasure and are considered to be "fun”.

Issue
• One of the biggest issues is drugs
• America's coaches need to let kids know it's critical to stay drug free for many reasons. Two big reasons are that drugs can damage
  your health and it's cheating if athletes use drugs to assist their performance. Olympic athletes know that taking drugs violates the
  competitive spirit of the Games,is irresponsible toward your own health, and is not fairplay.
