What is the real reason ?
I was having a chat with China about why we do not find many Indians in aggressive sports. I was just wondering over the same thought our sporting events differ a lot from many countries, we do not play in aggressive sports. On field too when it comes to vigor, let us say about the most common game Indians play, Cricket. In this sport too as compared to the other country players we lack the passion in us
The excellence in sports is determined by the nutrition factor. I strongly feel there are two things to it, one is we lack motivation and talent or our genetic structure doesn’t allow us to be so. Steffi Graf was handed a sawed-off tennis racquet at age five by an encouraging father and thereby got a headstart, she may not have dominated women’s tennis for so many years if it was not for her father to motivate her
In an interesting study a couple had three daughters and they had decided to make them chess players though all the girls dint show any inclination towards the game. All the daughters not only did exceptionally well but the youngest went on to become the youngest ever international chess grandmaster. The girl was from the famous Polgar family
Why do we fail to produce Maradona or Mc Grath? It is our genes which determine our cardiovascular, respiratory, metabolic, and regulatory functions. Each has a crucial bearing on stamina and fitness. Simply put, irrespective of the resources we invest in certain areas of sport, we are never going to come home with the gold. When it comes to sports which do not require much physical strain, we pass muster. More emphasis is given on studies rather than sports and the attitude that sports is for the non-serious student is the real reason for the country not producing enough champs
I feel it is a topic which can be open for debate whether we are born with our genes not supporting sport or do we lack the drive to excel in sports. But one thing is sure if we gave sports the priority and respect it deserves, the medals and accolades will automatically come in thick and fast
