Sports and games play an essential role in building up a person’s character and physic. In a sound mind resides a sound body. A person who is involved in sports is bound to have huge levels of energy and strength; on the other hand a person who abstains from sports will suffer from tiredness and lethargy. Playing a game or being involved in sports helps in enhancing blood circulation and improves physical and mental well being of a person.

There are numerous benefits of sports in a person’s life. Sports generate team spirit and develops leadership qualities. Playing a sport teaches us to take victory and defeat in the same stride. A child who stays indoors and simply strives for a series of academic achievements, is seen to develop adjustment problems later in life. Constant academic achievement does not teach them to handle defeat and drawbacks in life. When they face failures, they tend to get shattered and take drastic steps. In sports you have to encounter both failure and success. No matter how good you are at a sport you are bound to lose at some point of time or other and learn to improve yourself. Sports teach us to adjust, work hard, be humble and open minded.

It is natural that these children will have a better quality of life than those who abstain from sports.
