Sports activities are a critical educational tool that goes beyond physical fitness but the overall growth of the personality of the student includes both psychological and social aspects. Physical education has ceased to be just concerned with motor skills, it has now become a rich breeding ground on instilling in children's values of discipline, cooperation and responsibility and this has helped to produce a generation that will be able to positively interact with society.

Basic Concepts and Relations: Sports activity can be described as the structured physical activities that are directed into building up overall capabilities of a person whereas social values are described as the principles and norms that help govern the behavior of a person and define what the relations of the individual are with the rest of society like justice and tolerance. They complete each other; through sports, one can get a practical laboratory to learn to respect the rules, accept defeat, and collaborate as a team.
