Sports have existed in many forms for thousands of years, originating from activities meant for leisure and physical activity. They provide numerous physical, psychological, and health benefits. Physically, sports increase strength, stamina, agility, and weight loss while reducing health risks. Mentally, they relieve stress, boost confidence, and improve social and leadership skills. Sports also promote unity and peace by bringing different groups together in a spirit of fair competition.
