Skateboarding is a sport that many individuals in our society do recreationally or even professionally. There are many popular locations for skateboarding that people go to watch the sport in live action. Hollyfield Park is a popular skateboarding destination that many people come to. In today’s technologically growing society, it is very hard to see people outside playing or doing something they love. Banning this sport is essentially stripping away a large community of people from having fun and doing what they love. Skateboarding should not be banned from Hollyfield Park or any other city park as the rare outdoor community in today’s day and age is crucial to preserve, the safety of the community is protected due to the significant amount of people in the park day and night, and the diversity the park attracts due to this popular sport is crucial towards the economy of the city. …show more content…
The parks where I live are almost always empty because everyone is inside playing fortnite or watching Netflix. The fact that there are kids still out there skateboarding all day in the warm sun is something so rare and priceless. Shutting down all skateboarding in city parks is essentially forcing kids to stay inside the house and transfixed in some sort of technology. We need more children and individuals to be outside doing something recreational than staying inside all the time. Skateboarding is a great way of getting out in the sun doing something active. Stripping that away from someone is not only wrong but can lead to unhealthy internet addictions as
My first reason is schools should not get rid of sports because private and club sports are too expensive for most families. According to the scholastic news magazine, “Should Schools Get Rid of Sports” it states, “If we cut back school sports, some kids will find themselves shut out of sports completely. Yes, club sports-that is, private leagues outside of school-would be an option for some, but fees, equipment, and travel
parks system is a great way to get away. If we continue to allow our parks to
The sun beaming down, burning his skin. Sweat pours down his face like a bucket of water. At this moment he knew… his journey to hole eighteen had begun. Step after step and swing after swing he is getting closer and closer. His opponent is close behind him in points and hole 18 is approaching. Swinging and missing and hitting the ball in the wrong direction sets him back. After finally making it in hole 17, he realizes it is going to take a miracle to win this match. He sets his feet shoulder width apart, he looks down at the ball and centers his body. The man takes one deep breath in and on the exhale, he swings with maximum force. Quickly he finds the ball flying in the air, approaching the pin with a bright red flag. The ball hits the green and rolls toward the hole. Within a matter of seconds, the ball disappears. It had made it in the hole. It was
Today I am taking a break from the series of articles I usually write, to bring you a subject I have thought about for a long time. I only started paying attention to wrestling in my teen years, so the "Attitude Era" was what I considered wrestling. I won't go into what made the era special, because that would be insulting to your intelligence, everyone knows what made the era successful, and why some fans still pine for it. Needless to say, it was "cool", it suited the times, and it broke the mold formed over the previous decades.
Preview of Main Points: I will explain the history of the vinyl record and how they are made.
Skate boarding is a popular sport amongst today’s modern teens; it provides them with a sport other than the conventional everyday sports as was mentioned earlier. If there was to be a skate park here in town it would give the local skaters a feeling of acceptance, as well as let them know that their talents do not go unheard. A park pacifically made for skaters would give the skate boarders of our community a sense of ownership, as well as pride for the park. I n conclusion, I think that the idea of a skate park would dramatically increase the acceptance of the skaters in the community. Along with this it would adequately relieve many of the undesired results that arise due to the lack of a skate park, in addition to this it would help skaters to use their amazing talents to prosper.
If there was a dog park, property values would most definitely go up. The community should try to make every resident happy where they live. Some cat owners don't feel dog owners should be able to get a dog park since they themselves are not asking for a place to bring their cats. Cats are more of indoor animals and they don't need as much attention and exercise as dogs. Cats don't need wide open spaces to play around in. People feel as though they are being treated unfairly due to the lack of yard space and areas for their pets to roam around

All moderately sized towns should have a skatepark for three main reasons: it will make the town look like a nice place to live, the kids in the town won’t be getting into trouble for skating around town, and it is a lot safer than skating in the streets. In countless cities around the world, well-built skateparks have also been proven to be valuable community assets with tremendous benefits. Instead of viewing skateboarding as a negative problem that needs to be solved, these forward-thinking communities have found ways to embrace these sports while showcasing their artistic and acrobatic spirit(“The Benefits”).
Skate parks in communities are an asset that reduces the number of skateboarders in inconvenient places. This domino effect reduces the number of complaints to police officers of the nuisance caused by skateboarders. One officer in Maine said, “The skaters are very respectful, and the skate park has cut down on the youth crime, especially vandalism and kids skating on the sidewalks. The park gives the kids something to do (“Cops Love Skateparks”). This officer’s words reflect how 90 percent of 92 officers felt about how skate parks are an asset to the community. Skate parks serve as an asset to the community because skaters do not have to trespass in order to practice their sport, and it keeps youths out of trouble. Another officer in Massachusetts said, “I can honestly say that, based on my 27 years of police work, if you can keep kids busy like the skate park has done, you have completely prevented a future adult offender (“Cops Love Skateparks”).” An asset like this for nearly 10 million skaters is priceless and every town should have one. In a literal sense skate parks get kids off the streets because it gives skaters a place to practice and perfect the sport they
The fierce hand strikes again. There is no sense of motherly or fatherly love when sharp pains stem from vermillion scars appearing on your undeveloped and sensitive hand. Would you like to experience this everlasting pain?
For young teens whose only transportation is a skateboard, they can only travel so far, and skateparks are not close enough. To eliminate the amount of skateboarders in heavily populated areas, I propose that cities invest more money into building skateparks so skateboarders have a safe place to practice the sport. It is very hard to perform at the best of your ability with only being able to practice in your front yard. Skateboarders try to find a new place to skate, but come across a sign that reads “No Skateboarding” and get the cops called because they are on private property.
Is dance a sport or not? Some people in our world today consider dance just to be all frilly and fragile. Dance takes time, effort, determination and impeccable strength. I believe that dance is a sport because it has the same components as any other sport. In any other sport you need to work hard with a lot of effort, and that is exactly what dancers do. For example, most beginning dancers practice between five to ten hours a week. Although most people in our world today look at dancing as nothing more than tutus and twirling, a good dancer must have a mind mentally engaged, a body able to endure physical challenges, and toned dedication and skill.
Swimming paddles, much like swimming fins, can be used for playing in the water. They can help kids and adults alike swim faster and move through more water with each stroke. But care has to be taken when using them, to avoid shoulder injuries and strains. They're actually best used during swim training and for athletes who are training for a triathlon or other open water swims. Pose swimming, which focuses on keeping more of the body at the top of the water for buoyancy, is one situation where swimming paddles can make a huge difference in training.
