During the debut episode of Eagle Sports Zone we discussed the roles that sport play in our modern society. First, the historical journey of sports was discussed by looking at the origin of the Olympic games and how they evolved from 776 BC to today. From there we discussed how sports got intergraded into modern society. The roles we discussed were the benefits of exercise, national unity/identity/pride, socialization, sports as an economic lever, and gender roles.
