MGS A REALITY ?




Welcome welcome welcome! Its another weekend and I'm here to give you your weekly dose of Sports by FT9 . 

This week we look at Something odd -- maybe not all that odd -- abstract ? Not abstract either . 
Today we look at Mixed Gender Sports(MGS) . 



What is MGS ? Mixed Gender Sports is a natural disaster phenomenon which occurs when you put males and females together on the same pitch or court or whatever to play competitively. 


Why is MGS even a thing ?  Feminism . Feminism is a range of political movements, ideologies, and social movements that share a common goal: to define, establish, and achieve political, economic, personal, and social equality of sexes.



so yeah there you have it . Rights for equal goals is why women now want to play alongside men . Although some people  argue  that MGS is not right , others think it makes no difference including women in men sports , and truth be told they are right . 

Sporting activities like Mixed Athletics , Korfball and flying disc include both men and women ,and its great to see male and females work hand in hand to achieve a common goal.Other popular sports like football , basketball are yet to include women in the men's game . It will be great to see talents like  Lieke Martens play along side Wesley Sneijder or Depay.






Has MGS been considered for the Olympics ?  Yes! it has. The IOC  announced in June that Mixed Sports will be included in the 2020 Olympic games .


The Games will include a 4x400m mixed relay in athletics and a 4x100m medley mixed relay in swimming.
IOC president Thomas Bach said the Games will be
more youthful, more urban and include more women



Sports is a great profession and peoples lives are better because of the impact of sports one way or the other . Its time we treat sports with equality and give every one equal opportunities to reach for more regardless of their race and most importantly gender.The future of MGS looks bright , lets hope it stays that way .

Thank you for reading .I'm off to create my MGS fantasy team . Create yours and send it to FT9 sports and lets see , maybe one day we might just be lucky to see it in real life . see ya!

APPIAH RETURNS

Ghana’s favourite son is back or should I say Kotoko’s star boy is back. Judging from the poor management of Ghana’s former coach - Avram Grant, It was imperative that Ghanaian fans will turn on him . Coach Avram Grant’s stay in Ghana as the head coach of the senior side and earning close to about 250,000 cedis was seen as greedy and wicked by ordinary citizens who hardly made any income in the supposedly corrupt Government, that was sent packing in the 2016 general elections. Avram Grant left the coaching position and the Country in the first week of February,2017 after repeated speculations that he was going to be fired within that month – could say he prevented a major career disgrace! Avram Grant will surely not be missed by Ghanaians in anyway ,but one person who’s exit from the senior national side was missed by most Ghanaians in the “Don of Grant”  was Ghana’s own James Kwesi Appiah ,who managed the senior side from 2012-2014 and went into the record books as the first Ghana

POGBA UNDERRATED

Paul Pogba was bought at a record 89 million ponds -- The highest Man U has ever spent on a player. Paul Pogba's extraordinary transfer fee could have been avoided had Alex Ferguson not sold him to Juventus, whiles he was trying to find grounds at Old Trafford. Paul Pogba has widely been criticized for his pathetic performance at the Old Trafford and has been cited as one of the most disappointing transfers in the club's history. Pogba's performance isn't that disappointing but considering his transfer fee and the hype building to and after his transfer makes his performance unsatisfactory Paul Pogba is, however, starting to become the player he was at Juventus as he beat big names like Hazard and Neymar to lead the Assist chart across Europe. He has played just 13 games whiles his fellow competitors are averaging over 20 games -- Leroy Sane & Debruyne. Is Podga underrated considering his Hard work and influence in Manchester United'S Rejuv

RONALDINHO RETIRES

We all knew it was just a matter of time before Ronaldinho unofficially called it quits in football, but just like all the great things,  it came unexpectedly and the FOOTBALL world is proud and sad at the same time. Ronaldinho brought something that had been missing in the game of football --Style. Football had style way before Ronaldinho came, but after seeing his style and craft, we knew we had been seeing garbage all those times. He had the pace of a Ferrari and Turing force of an F16 Raptor. He literally moved pass anyone who faced him in a duel and sometimes managed to get some little time off to entertain fans to do that extra dribble for the joy of millions. The world has been flooded by footballers who try to imitate  Ronaldinho's style of play but the never gets to that level we saw in Ronaldinho. Everybody wants to be like Ronaldinho after watching his Videos but never has anyone reached the pinnacle of Ronaldinho's success, except Ronaldinho himself
