Importance of Games
and Sports in Ensuring a Healthy Body and Mind
Who is there who may
not have heard the sayings ‘A healthy mind lives in a healthy body’, and ‘All
study and no play makes Jack a dull boy’. Sports and games are undoubtedly the
building blocks of the health and character of children. Their importance in
the over-all and holistic development of children cannot be denied.
Games and sports give children
the right environment for physical exercise. While playing them children run,
sprint, bend, and exert healthy pressure on their muscles, organs, and systems.
This healthy exertion is a must for optimal physical growth.
Games instill in
students many values and virtues. The first is a sense of discipline. All games
are time bound activities. They start at fixed time, continue for a specified
amount of time and then there is always ending time. The player has to do his
best within the given time to win game. This time-limit makes him aware of the
value of time. He prepares himself keeping the time in mind.
Secondly, games teach
us focus and concentration. The player focuses on strategies to win a game. For
example in order to score the target in a cricket match, he keeps the target in
mind and plays accordingly. This enhances his focus.
Thirdly, games teach
us teamwork, camaraderie, and cooperation. A player has to play in coordination
with other team members. He learns how to adjust and adapt in relation with
others. This ability to work in a group and team is very essential in the
current times. Later on I life one has to work always in a team, at work,
research projects, or any type of work, it is all team work. So team work one
learns the best at play ground.
Fourthly, games
teach us sportsmanship. We learn good etiquettes and polite behavior with our
opponents. Games also teach us how to accept defeat and further
self-improvement. So games are essential in building a strong character. We
must encourage young children to play at least one game regularly.
