    Can sbd check my essay for mistakes and relevance to the topic below .Thanks.

    Some people think that national sports teams and individual men and women who represent their country should be financed by the government. However, others argue that they should be funded by non-government sources (e.g. businesses, scholarships, etc.). Discuss both views and give your opinion.

    Sport plays a really significant role in our lives. We are used to participating, watching sports on television, and cheering for players. There are many kinds of sports, but they can be divided into two groups - team sport and single player sport. Many players and athletes represent their countries in world competitions and tournaments. Nevertheless, some people claim that they should be sponsored by non-government sources, like businesses or scholarships. While, others support another thought, that national sportsmen should be funded by the government of the country they represent.

    To begin with, when we talk about national sport there are always huge expenses, like equipment, sportswear and expenses for all competition trips. Participators bear a very big responsibility representing their country. However, a lot of people play sports not because of the competitions, but for their enjoyment. And those who do play for competitions take very large risks, even health risks, about which they are very nervous, instead of just enjoying what they do. Moreover they do it because of the country they represent, but not for any other organizations. That is why I disagree with the opinion that sportsmen should be funded by non-government sources.

    In contrast, other people claim that these kinds of sports, that are called national, should be financed by government sources. It is clear, that if the country wants to win any competitions, a lot things depend on the efforts they make; how they will prepare the participants. Because if any of them wins, it will be such a source of pride for the country.
    Thus, I agree with the other statement that national sport should be paid by the government.
    To summarize everything I have said, I am of the opinion that national sports teams and individual players standing for a nation should be financially supported by the government to achieve the desired performance.

    Hi! Two things - You need to use present tense (bring) and if you want, specifically, to use the word 'worthy' you need to have a noun to attach it to (since worthy is an adjective). So you could say 'We need to bring up our children in a worthy way' but it's a very awkward sentence. The way I would express this thought is: 'We need to bring our children up well.'
