Introduction
To achieve a common goal, when a group of people works together, it is referred to as teamwork. Teamwork, in every field, is a necessary attribute for attaining success as it, by bringing more minds together, divides the work among several people thus increasing the chance of success. It sharpens a sense of dependency, boundness, and obligation which are also important to lead a healthy social life as we all are a part of a society and teamwork teaches us to behave like one. It teaches you to communicate and share your thoughts and belongings and your assets with others promoting a sense of commitment and a sense of accountability. Teamwork teaches you to be responsible and leave reluctance behind as the goal you are working for is others’ too and it is non-negotiable to put that in jeopardy. It also helps to build coordination among inmates leading to greater chances of success.
Teamwork in Sports: –
When we talk about teamwork or team, the first sector that comes to our mind is sports. In sports, correct team building is the most important factor to make sure that the coordination among the teammates is appropriate as it majorly affects the performance of the teams. By dividing work among teammates, the stress is reduced and in turn, they get to work on small portions of the load making it faster and better.
Importance of teamwork
Building personal relations: It is not untrue that working individually is rewarding but working as a team helps us to build personal relations. Also, working as a group promotes conversation which leads to improvement of quality of work.
Goal setting: when a goal is set by an entire team, players are motivated to chase that as the burden falls on every shoulder making it seem more achievable. Also, when you play for a team, there is no scope for reluctance as your performance will surely affect the team.
Adventure: Sports in itself is no less than an adventure. It is doubled when one plays as a part of a team and not individually. The excitement is doubled, and so is the zest to chase the goal as you have your teammates boosting your confidence at every step.
Sharing personal experiences: To be able to share everything good or bad you have experienced in life with people who belong to the same field and might have faced the same in their lives is a great feeling. When you work as a team you get to learn from the experiences of your teammates and can view the same things from a different perspective.
Common love for physical activities: If you are a sportsperson, you would be interested in other physical activities. Having your teammates play other sports is a fruitful experience after all the training.
Profoundness of creativity: More the number of heads, the greater the creativity. So, working as a team improves the quality of work and thus results more on the positive side.
Growth in resilience: Having your teammates around to boost your confidence when you fall short at it will make you grow resilient toward any crisis and helps you deal with it in a way that is easier when done alone.
Conclusion
Be it in sports or in any other field, teamwork acts as a pool of strength, creativity, resilience, and talent. It also fosters a sense of responsibility, commitment, and accountability. It also promotes belongingness and highlights each other’s talent and shadows their weaknesses. The importance of teamwork cannot be overstated and by working as a team every win becomes more joyful and the sorrow of every loss is divided among all of them.
