MOBILE PHONE THROWING

What is a best-looking and well-built mobile phone to you? What would you do if you get it broken? I bet most of you would come to the nearest repairing mobile phone service and fix it. However, as it is quite rare to hear, a few of you would toss it in the bin. For those who love throwing away the mobile phone because of its bad performance, you can be, I could say, an honourable sportsman. The sport itself is called mobile phone throwing, while you will find it under the tittle cell phone throwing in the United States of America. It is a sport in which participants throw the mobile phones and are judged on distance or technique.
            Mobile phone throwing is originally started in Savonlinna, Finland, in the year 2000, and then it has been gone around across the country since then. There are officially two categories in the Mobile Phone Throwing. Traditional style is over-the-shoulder-throw, where the length of the throw is crucial. In Freestyle, the style is free and the contestant gets points for aesthetics and creative choreographics from 4 to 10. In both categories the contestant with the highest score wins.The prize for the first place in a national event is entry to the world championship, and the grand prize for winning the world championship is a new mobile phone.

What are the common rules
            First, the mobile phone used can vary widely. Certain contest demands  all participants utilize one phone model, while other competitions let you use any cell phone that weights from 220 grams to over 440 grams. Second, the contestant must stay inside the throwing area during the throw. Once the contestant steps over the area, s/he will be disqualified. Third, the phone must land within the marked throwing section. Fourth, cell phone can not be altered and battery must be attached.
What are the benefit joining this competition
            Eventhough it’s unusual and less popular sport, mobile phone throwing has many advantages. First, like any other popular sports, such as football or basketball, mobile phone throwing offers fun activity, which is quite useful to reduce stress, and healthy body. Second, this weird sport circumstancially participate in clean environment care. As you know, the discarded and dumped mobile phone contains a battery, which is toxic waste, that must be handled carefully. Local recycling center become a partner and they collect all the toxic waste. Finally, not only does this sport provide fun activity and support clean environment, but it is also strengthen social awareness. In the United states of America, the contestants will be asked for donations that cost only 5 dollars per each entry. The charitable contribution will be handed to the local hospital.
To conclude, having seen that benefits, I should argue that this growing-fast sport is worth to apply in development countries, one of which is Indonesia. It should be; however, conducted and supported by middle class to top class people with million rupiahs in their saving. the rich people get fun and health from it, and the needy get soething from it. This what people say as Criscross. Have your say.
