Should sports be compulsory in colleges?

 Being physically fit is crucial for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. In this generation people have adopted sedentary behaviour which negatively affects their health. Sports should be mandatory in colleges and schools not just practically but also in the form of a subject. Too much of indulgence in studies and electronic devices, makes a student lethargic and inactive, which leads to diseases and obesity at a young age. Colleges and schools must have all types of equipments and gears for all sports to cater to all children and their specific sport choice. Infrastructure for sports should be developed for example swimming pool, badminton courts and swimming others. A specific time slot should be allowed for sports so that children don’t have to compromise on their lectures. Seminars with famous athletes should be conducted at colleges so that kids remain motivated, consistent and inspired. Extraordinary performing children should be given opportunities like scholarships, grants and personal coaching for future competitions and to also encourage other budding athletes. It is important that the youth remain active, as they are the future of the country, therefore sports should be necessitated in every university.
