Sporting activity in schools-.India ..
Sports are at present, the most underrated activity in our education system. Sporting enhances our decision making ability , activeness, fitness , discipline and many such. We have sports in curriculum but lack seriousness and suitable importance, though with all these added strengths
Academic growth needs Qualities and strengths like critical thinking skills, patience, regularity and discipline etc. All these get real boost while participating in sporting activities.. Team spirit, leadership , conflict management, broadminded mindset and friendly attitude all we find in practical way in sports activity.
The major worry in present day sports promotion is excessive commercialization , media and business interests through some unwanted ways . Though promotion is very much needed , the vested interests and corruption, denial of opportunities due to off- field poltics are worrisome. Too much commercialization results Excessive costs of training, and hype only for particular sports which suit business interests .These all create hindrances for right talented players and nurturing future talent in all the faculties of sports , games and Athletics.
Media created online sports betting and gambling in games cause irrepairable damage among youth, children and even adults These derail the spirit of sporting and if not checked and for suitable remedies through strict legislative methods.
One thing, most important one , that lacks is integration of sports in our education system , highlighting importance of both academics and sports. The performance in school level sports is not assessed by most of the academic boards ( mostly states) . The point is assessment for each and every student in primary, secondary and college levels . This promotes sports in school level , reducing psychological stress among students
In conclusion, sports offer all these benefits and mechanism for the right place in our education system .
