Should schools have girls and boys on the same sports teams? In my school the girls and the boys can be in the same team and I think that those things depends the type of person that play, if a person practices or if a person is lazy that makes the game different, and if you ask me that "Should schools have girls and boys on the same sports teams?" I think that yes, they should.

I reckon it is really fun to let boys and girls play outside activities together. They can understand their strengths and weaknesses, I don’t mean girls are less stronger than boys but there are kind of sports such as football, boxing, basketball,...boys have to play with boys and girls have to play with girls. If we let them play together I think boys don’t feel comfortable to play with girls because their real strong can hurt girls.
