Sport in US is a special phenomenon. Americans think that sport helps you to educate faith in your strengths and capabilities, as well as the ability to use them. Since childhood, Americans are convinced that the real value of sport is to prepare for the achievement of life success. This is largely promoted by the slogans you can see in the vast majority of school locker rooms: “You are nobody until you are No.1”, “If you finish second, no one knows your name”. Americans want to be winners anywhere: in studies, business, politics. Sport is a concentrated expression of this.
