Benefits of Participation & Competition

Provides sense of well being:

Competitive athletics produce a natural “high” caused by the brain’s secretion of endorphins- morphine-like chemicals that help combat pain and stress. This chemical reaction gives an individual a healthy sense of wellbeing.

Promotes self-confidence:     

There is something deeply satisfying about realizing our potential, doing our best, making the most of what we have when we are competing. This in turn increases our feelings of self-worth and self-confidence because we feel good about ourselves.
