Sports and physical education are necessary components of human development, good health, and companionship and to have a spirit of friendly competition.
This has a positive impact on the overall development of the personality Brilliance in sports enhances a person’s sense of achievement, national pride and patriotism. Sports in India include both indoor games like chess, snooker, and playing cards and outdoor games like football, cricket, badminton and tennis.
Sports in India dates back to the ancient times with references found in the Vedas and Indus Valley Civilisation. Archaeological excavations of Mohenjodaro and Harappa reveal that people indulged in some sort of physical activities and also played a variety of games using marbles, balls and dice.
Hunting, swimming, boating and boxing were also some of the major sports played and nurtured in India in ancient times.
Yoga was an integral part of ancient Indian culture. Yoga was practice by almost every school thought to achieve spiritual and mental peace. The people forgot it but now people have once again realised the importance of yoga.
Chess originated in ancient India and was known as Chatur- anga – meaning four limbs. It represents four-fold division on the ancient Indian army – infantry, war elephants, cavalry and chariots. Chaturanga is the direct ancestor of shatranj, which was played by the Pandavas and the Kauravas.
The popular game of cards originated in ancient India and was known as Krida-patram. It was one of the favourite pastimes of Indians in ancient times. This game was patronised especially by the royalty and nobility. In medieval India, playing cards was known as Ganjifa cards which were played in practically all royal courts.
Ancient India claims to have been the origin of judo and karate. Kerala’s martial art form Kalaripayate is similar to karate.
