college sport

         In the article, the writer analyzes the NCAA basketball tournament’s Midwest region situation. I want to discuss about the system about American college sports from this article.

         The writer introduces the team which participates in the NCAA tournament one by one. Also, I think this article will be popular so much because of it talks about college sports. The college sport is like an icon in the American culture. I had been watched the UCR soccer team and basketball team’s game. It’s so amazing about the stadium atmosphere. I can’t image it was the college game; it seemed like professional game. Before the game, people who is the alumni or student can get the free blue t-shirt which is the home color of UCR to support the team. In the bread, there also had several games to arouse the audience’s interesting. Of course, the main people in the college is the college students; they are young and emotional whatever they are in the court or in the audience seat; but, definitely, for the college students, supporting their college team in the stadium to beat the opponents is the best moment in the college. Additionally, the sport team’s students also need to prepare their assignment like regular students. If they fail to pass a course, they will be cancel the qualify of sports or scholarship. So they can not forgive their academic duty.

         However, in my country, the situation is totally different. The student athlete will be ask to achiever the low academic level to acquire the diploma. Besides, some of them , just as the athlete to enroll in the college, their academic knowledge has a large distance compare with other student. And most of them are like a group; they live together, eat together and train together. They have not a large communication relation which enhance their social experience. Indeed, they like a special group in the college. They come to service for school, yet not for them to learn the knowledge of achieve the personal dream. That is the biggest different between two country’s sport system.

         In addition, the America college student has many choices after finishing college life. They can play the professional or like normal student to apply for a job which suit for their major. On the country, Chinese students have many problems in the future job. Although this situation has been changed a lot, there is still a huge gap between the student and social. Most college athlete student can’t play the professional. Because there is another way for train the professional player. The player who is not admit by the coach will recommend to study in the college. So, this way is blocked. And for another reason, because they are limit of job or academic knowledge, they are hard to get the firm’s believe. Most of them will still play the sport item in the factory. It’s not a life time plan.

         From these reasons, I think America college sport has a better system compare with Chinese. I hope my country can learn the American experience to improve our college sport.
