LETTER-WRITING is an important channel of communication between people who are geographically distant from one another. In earlier times when the telephone and e-mail were not available, the only means of communication between people was through letters.
So, here I am going to show how you can write a letter. In this article, we will provide you with detailed information regarding the formal letter format about suggesting measures for improvement of games and sports at national level. Read on to know everything about formal letter format. Below I have given the full format of a letter, by following which you can write the letter and can apply for.

Sir,
The Seoul Olympics has once again proved that our sportsmen are miles behind international standard. The dismal show of our players in international meets is a regular affair. While other countries are marching ahead in sports and games, we have hardly been able to improve our standard.
The reasons for the failure of our sportsmen are:
(b) Poor and age-old training method.
(c) Non availability of modern field and track equipments like glass poles for pole vault, runnér spikes, balanced bullets, tartan tracks, polygrass, etc.
(d) Lack of proper encouragement from different quarters. In team events like football, basketball, vollyball etc., we are nowhere near the international standard. We have already lost in hockey in which we were world champion till the other day. What is needed is a new and scientific approach towards improving our sports. We should change our style of play and start playing on polygrass or astroturf grounds to face stronger opponents. Intensive coaching under internationally experienced coaches and adoption of scientific methods with modern equipments will go a long way in improving our standard. Last but not the least, we should catch the players young as is done in other countries.
Yours truly,
Gour Mazumdar
