Wrestling Persuasive Essay


One of the greatest problems facing youth today is physical health.  I believe Davis School District should not eliminate Fairfield Junior High’s wrestling program in their budget cuts for many reasons, such as; many student’s physical health would be at risk, some teens would feel less connected to the school, and a loss of the wrestling team mean less chances for sportsmanship and leadership opportunities.

Would Davis School District sacrifice the health of young people to save a few bucks?  Continuing the wrestling team would help youth stay fit, physically, and mentally.  The health of youth now will determine their well being in the future.

School sports encourage teens to support their school.  Young adults come to games and cheer on the mighty falcons.  Loss of the wrestling team would result in a loss of school spirit for wrestlers and students alike.

One of the most important parts of school sports is learning how to get along with others.  Athletes and students need the wrestling team to practice skills such as leadership, sportsmanship, and commitment, the skills that are of great importance during school, and in life to come.

 I know that if Davis School District chose to eliminate Fairfield Junior High’s wrestling team, a plethora of problems would arise, including the risk of student’s physical health, less school spirit for all, and loss of sportsmanship opportunities.  When Davis School District decides to not eliminate Fairfield Junior High’s wrestling team, they will make Fairfield Junior High a happier, healthier place.
