竞技运动有助女孩建立信心加强恢复力 Girls should take part in competitive sport to build confidence and resilience, the leader of a group of girls' schools will argue this week. 一位女校组织领导表示，竞技运动有助于女孩们建立信心和加强恢复力。他们将于本周将就此话题展开讨论。 Helen Fraser, chief executive of the Girls Day School Trust (GDST), will tell the group's conference that sport can help girls cope with failure. All girls "and not just the sporty ones" should take physical exercise, Ms Fraser will say. Research that girls are far less active than boys is worrying, she argues. "Girls who are in schools which focus solely on academic achievement can experience success after success, and may never learn that you can have a real setback and come back and recover", Ms Fraser told BBC News. "The experience of losing a hockey（曲棍球） game three-nil and carrying on to another match builds resilience". Ms Fraser will tell the conference that she backs "sport for all". "That's why I love it when our schools have A, B ,C and D teams and beyond", she will say. Not all girls like ball games so it's important to find alternatives, says the GDST The GDST draws on research from the Women's Sport and Fitness Foundation which suggests only a quarter of girls in England meet current recommended levels of physical activity each week, with the proportion taking part in regular sport falling steeply after the age of 10. |
