Titles for sports events

Titles for sports events

It is commendable that The Jakarta Post is trying its best to
cover sports events as much as possible to cater to the interests
of sports lovers in this country. It devotes one or two full
pages to this section.

However, may I suggest that the presentation be improved by
assigning appropriate titles to each type of sport (like Tennis,
Football, Racing, Track or Sprints, Cycling, Badminton etc.) at
the top of each story, so that it is easier for the readers to
locate the column to read the particular sport(s) they are
interested in.

In the absence of such titles, for someone like me who is not
familiar with the names of sports persons or teams in all sports
and games, it takes a while to guess or realize what kind of
sport a particular news story relates to, especially when the
contents do not specify the nature of the sport. I hope the Post
will consider implementing this simple but useful suggestion in
future editions for the benefit of the readers.
