1. SPORT Jozef Halaj

2. History of sport No one rightly knows when and why was sport originated Physical activities are within us up from the creation of population.. BUT !! The word Sport has it´s beginnings yet in antiquity. It is connected with the birth of olympic games. By antiquity I meant old Greece. And the first dated mention about the games was written in year 776 b.c.

3. Water polo Basic rules : It is a team water sport The playing field is 33 m. long and 21 m. wide. There are 5+1 players playing 6 on the bench. The game is played on 4 periods by 8 minutes. The players score goals in the net.. Pretty easy ;)

4. Water polo is my favourite sport. I play it myself. It is realy easy and beautifull but it has it´s dark backroud too. By that I mean a lot of hurt injuries and malice. It is a contact and agresive sport. So it´s not for everyone. But it is a good way of finding out that you´re not from sugar. We have a saying of ours : Play tough play rough or take your ball and go home !!!

5. In Slovakia we have a succesfull water polo backround but it it not advertised so people dont get much information about it. There is an extraliga and firt league. Season is from december to june. we play on turnaments and earn points. Who has the most wins.

6. sport and personality development sport and personality development Sport has great positive influence on personality training. Physically, but mentally as well. It is realy helpfull for children. They can work on their social relationships and skills. Thanks to sport you´ll stay fit and healthy and also you can look good too. Healthy body and healthy mind Its good for mood. It releases endorphin to blood.

7. Negative effect of profesional sport life Many sportsmen can not mentaly carry the stress and pressure and the slowly fade out. With great succes comes fortune, fame and many, many money. Many of the very best are taking drugs, they drink... And the worst thing if they can´t handle the pressure of their life style they start to take anabolics or steroids.. Doping.

8. If I sum it all up and enclose my opinions, sport is a great thing in every point of wiev. People have fun, they learn and in the last it helps them to devolop and imrove in every way in life.
