Subject: Importance of games and sports in the life of students.
Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed daily newspaper, I would like to highlight the importance of games and sports in the life of students.
The benefits of physical exercise or games and sports are far-reaching. So it is important for students to take part in games and sports. The benefits of games and sports are not limited to physical well-being. Games and sports teach us important values of life like discipline, teamwork and strength in unity. Games also instill in us obedience, respect, self-control, concentration, good manners and behaviours. Students must not lead a sedentary life by spending too much time in idleness and inactivity. Physical exercise increased the physical well being of a person and improve mental and academic performance. A lack of physical activity is known to increase the risk of obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and decrease their mental performance.
Regular physical activity is known to have the following benefits:
1. Builds healthy bones and muscles.
2. Improves strength, stamina and endurance.
3. Reduces stress and anxiety.
4. Helps control weight and reduces the risk of obesity.
5. Keeps the circulatory and respiratory system strong.
6. Improves blood pressure and reduce cholesterol levels.
7. Reduces feelings of depression.
8. Promotes psychological well-being.
9. Boost our self confidence.
10. Improves our memory power.
Games and sports has been shown to have positive effects upon learning, increased attentiveness in class and better grades. There is a strong correlation between high physical fitness scores and high academic scores. So, do not hesitate in getting involved in games and sports. Therefore all students must participate in games and sports for physical, mental and emotional well-being.
Yours sincerely,

Tips:
Mention the place of writing and date.
Underline Subject.
"To" is not followed by a coma. Sir/ Madam should be followed by a coma.
Your name and address are needed to show the letter is genuine and not written under a false name. Some people do this to demean others.
Letters to the editor, or friends or other people are good to read if we refrain from using "I" in every line or paragraph. Using "I" too much is boring because it is like self advertisement.
