A study on various capacities of sports persons
Author(s): Dharmender Singh
Abstract:The role of sport in society has been debated for many decades. Sport is a part of society as both an educational fixture and an entertainment enterprise. Sport forms part of human and social development; it can contribute to social cohesion, tolerance and Integration and is an effective channel for physical and socioeconomic development. As a universal language, sport can be a powerful medium for social and economic change: it can be utilized to bridge cultural gaps, resolve conflict and educate people in ways that very few activities can. Sport is characterized by a hierarchical organization in which the level of performance of a player is described by the appropriate level of competition (e.g., local, regional, national, and international). Expert performance in sports can be defined as the consistent superior athletic performance over an extended period (Strakes
et al., 1993).
