Development of sports in Pakistan
By:Mahnoor Fatima
In practical terms ‘sport’ is defined by its social interpretation as well as its strong association with physical exertion and performance measures.What we perceive as ‘sport’ in one instance may not be in another; sport takes on many forms and is constantly changing based upon societal norms, trends, and new directions.
A human activity involving physical exertion and skill as the primary focus of the activity, with elements of competition or social participation where rules and patterns of behaviour governing the activity exist formally through organisations and is generally recognised as a sport.
Currently ‘sport’ tends to take on the look of traditional (standard) sports; modified sports designed to attract targeted audiences; or, social sports having various motivations at their roots. Many terms (i.e. sport, recreation, physical activity, exercise) are used interchangeably when they have similar structures and outcomes; and discretely to make a distinction of difference.
Sport includes actual effort of muscles of an individual in which he or she rivals the other person Sports assume a fundamental part in the improvement of human muscle aswell as helping any nation’s economy.
192 nations around the world are contributing in the development of sports that makes close to 100% while the remaining 01% couldn’t care less. Each nation of the almost 100% give an qual importance to ach sort of game similarly which is the reason their economy isn’t at stake. In the event, that their nation is vieing for a soccer they will give equivalent significance to rugby aswell.
Development of Sports in Pakistan isn’t quite as much developing as it ought to. Our Sports framework simply centers something like one game in which we’re great at and will disregard the other games. Our National Game is Hockey however we center around cricket more than hockey. Cricket is played in most districts of Pakistan and a conventional Pakistani has more likely have played it in one time of their life.Comparatively there are millions of players who are great at various kinds of games like football, basketball, tennis , taekwondo and many more.
Pakistan is a sports-loving nation and sports in Pakistan are an important part of Pakistan’s culture. in recent years, there has been an increase in sports activities in Pakistan, with Pakistani athletes and women participating in many national and international competitions. Now, more international tournaments played in Pakistan. The size of the teams sent to Pakistan and in which they participate, such as the Olympic Games, the Asian Games, the World Games, and the Commonwealth Games increased by the end of the century.
However,Our Sports framework’s just shortcoming is they drag the players of different games into cricket as well and that is the justification for why we fall behind from the rest of the world. It’s upon the Sports Board and the Government of Pakistan to cooperate to improve sports development in Pakistan to succeed and rival the other nations and hence ought to procure our name in the Sports Champions list of the world.Someone wise once said; “The Key to live a healthy life is to be fit.”
