Sports in schools
I have been wondering for a while, after I moved abroad to study and met a lot of people from different countries, something that striked me is how everyone is/was always engaged in a different sport at school (even multiple), from the obvious ones like football/basketball/tennis to niche things like cross country and frisbee.
When i was in secondary school all we did was 2 séances of P.E per week and all we did was stretch, run and probably play football or something. The only times where we had organized teams and games was when we needed to raise money for our grad party.
Was it the same in other schools? I feel like our education system puts so little importance in sports education and participation, and it's not like you need crazy amounts of funding.
It's not a surprise our national teams are shit, majority of ternagers/young adults live shit lifestyles if they do not go to the gym atleast, and that sport is so ridiculed in lebanon and treated as a waste of time.
Do we even have national school competitions? Maybe I was in the wrong school but something as basic as this should be worked on. It also promotes national and societal unity which is something that we severly lack
