Task Choose 1 advantages and 1 drawbacks and explain reason how or why this may be a benefit/drawback. One benefit of hosting an International sporting event is that the facilities around the area will improve. This is because new facilities will need to be built to accommodate the event. After the event, local people can use the facilities which will improve their experiences playing sport which could lead to increased participation levels.
