The value of sports and games is today recognized by all educationists. Books develop our mind but games develop our body. Games, if properly played, not only makes our body stout and muscular but also fill our body with strength and vigor. Games also provide freshness to our mind and imbibe in us many qualities. Games inculcate in us sportsman's spirit, honesty, punctuality, regularity, team spirit, leadership and obedience.

A true sportsman is never sorry and sad for his defeat. He plays game for game's sake and not for winning always. Each game is played under certain rules, to be obeyed by all the players. Above all, games teach us how to command and how to obey.
