Saiful Unit 12: Current Issues in Sport Unit 12Task 1
P5
Fitness:
Fitness could be a barrier to participation in sport as people who are very unfit may not want
to take part in sport as they could be scared of people judging them. For example, someone
who is obese may think that people would judge them because of their weight, and they may
not even like sport, so they are even less inclined to take part. Another massive part of
someone’s fitness is their motivation to exercise. A lack of motivation will stand between
what you will be if you sit back and do nothing about it,
and what you can become if you do something about the
problem. To increase your motivation, you should take a
friend to exercise regularly so you can both keep each
other on your toes so there’s no time for messing about.

Time:
Time is a barrier to sports participation as some people may have a very busy life which
means that they do not have enough time to take part in sport. For example, if someone has
kids and has to go to work then they won’t be able to make time to take part in sports as
looking after children is very demanding especially if they are of a young age where they
need taking to and from school. Tidying up for them after you've come back from dropping
them off, doing there washing and putting it away. Then any other jobs you may have to do
in your home. After school you could put them in after school clubs but that's if you can
afford too, so that may be another barrier to your sport. Then after all that you've still got to
go home and cook their dinner and put them to bed then after all that you're too tired to do
anything else.
Medical conditions:
Medical conditions can be a massive barrier to sport as if you have short term or long-term
injuries then this can completely stop you from participating in sport. For example if you have
torn your ACL then you will not be able to take part in any exercise for months so when they
eventually come back it won’t feel the same and this may push them away from participating
in sport. Another medical condition that once again links to preventing participation is
obesity. Being obese can be very dangerous to your health and doctors say that if you're
overweight as a child you're likely to be overweight as an adult. Obesity is linked to all kinds
of health problems such as: heart disease, cancer, strokes, high blood pressure and weak
bones. To prevent it children are encouraged to take part in physical activity from a young
age because it will reduce the risk of them becoming obese in their childhood. People that
take part in any aerobic exercise are more likely to be affected in losing weight.

Task 2
Gender:
Although the participation of women and girls in sport and exercise has increased in the last
decade, the numbers of female and male participants are not equal. More specifically, within
physical activity environments, gender affects emotions, feelings, and behaviors. Gender
differences represent relations of power. Before 1972, when Title IX (Law) was introduced,
more than 90% of the U.S. Women were coached by women's athletic teams. Today,
despite the presence of more girls and women, fewer than 50% of their coaches are women.
Scholars of sports studies have described sport as a powerful force that socializes boys and
men into a limited male identity. We expect to see men dominate women, and we are
uncomfortable with bigger, stronger women who take active, dominant roles expected of
athletes. Gender stereotypes can limit men even more than women in sports. Men within the
athletic community who deviate from the masculine norm frequently face mockery, abuse, or
physical assault.
Stereotypes are a problem because individuals act on them, exaggerating small differences
in gender and limiting opportunities. In figure skating or ice hockey, both girls and boys will
participate. Yet children see as role models female figure skaters and male ice hockey
players; peers gravitate to sex-segregated sports; and gender-appropriate activities are
endorsed by parents, teachers, and coaches. The gendered context of sport and exercise
has changed, particularly for women and girls, but gender stereotypes and inequality
continues. Sport and exercise are clearly linked with masculine values and behaviors. Those
gender stereotypes restrict opportunities and behaviors for both men and women, and may
encourage unhealthy behaviors, such as overtraining or unhealthy eating behaviors. The
limited gender research focuses on women, which highlights neglected issues, but sport and
exercise scholars have far to go to understand gender in physical activity settings.
