Millions of people play games for fun. However, there are professional gamers. They practise for ten or more hours a day, five or six days a week. They earn money by playing competitive computer games, or e-sports!

Then, are e-sports really sports? Some say no. E-sports players don’t need to run, jump, throw or do big physical actions. At the moment, the UK government classifies e-sports as kinds of games, not as sports. But others say yes: e-sports are sports. Players do need some physical skills, especially hand–eye coordination, quick reaction. They also need to be accurate and good at timing. In fact, the governments of China and South Korea classify e-sports as sports, and they will be an official medal sport in the Asian Games starting from 2022.
