INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study
Leisure, Sports and wellness have emerged as important social construction of
the 21st Century. Hundreds of sports events exist, from those being single
contestants, through to those with hundreds of simultaneous participants.
Research shows that sports have the capacity to connect youth to positive adult
role models and provide positive development opportunities, as well as promote
the learning and application of life skills. In recent years the use of sports to
reduce crime, as well as to prevent violent extremism and radicalization, has
become more widespread, especially as a tool to improve self-esteem, enhance
social bonds and provide participants with a feeling of purpose. Participation in
sports has always been an ideal element to gauge the personality of the
university students. However recent trends are showing that there is a decline
the participation of students in the Intercollege or university sports
competitions.
The research mainly focuses to identify the perception of students of Chinmaya

Institute of Technology towards the participation of sports activities and
perception of the department of Physical Education regarding improving student
participation. The goal of this paper is to understand the reasons behind the
decline in participation of students in college sports events and to suggest the
various measures through which we can increase the student participation
9
SIGNIFICANCE
Participation in sports can help students in a multitude of ways. Physical

activity can not only contribute to improving students’ physical health, it can
also aid in developing social skills and improving mental health, as well as
leading to better academic outcomes and college completion. Students who
participate in sports during the academic years tend to have a positive attitude
towards physical activity which does not diminish as they age
RESEARCH PROBLEM
Recently there has been a reduction in the number of students participating in

the university sports events. Even though there are student participation in
sports like tennis and badminton, other sports like Cricket, Football, Hockey,
Chess etc. are not getting participation from the College. This study aims to find
the reason behind the absence of participation of students from sports events.
OBJECTIVES
 To identify the perception of students towards the participation of sports

activities
 To find the reason behind the absence of participation of students from
university sports events.
 To find out the perception of students toward the equipment and support
provided by the sports department
 To find the number of students who are willing to participate in
university sports events
SCOPE
The scope of the study is extended only to the students of Chinmaya Institute of
Technology in Chala Kannur.

for all students, including African
American girls. The positive
effects of sports participation on

3) Sports Daniel I. Rees
Participation and Joseph J. Sabia The article "Sports participation
Academic 10 Jan 2009 and academic performance:
Performance Evidence from the National
Longitudinal Study of Adolescent
Health" examines the relationship
between high school sports
participation and academic
performance. The authors find that
students who participate in sports
perform better in school than those
who do not, even after controlling
for a variety of factors such as
family background, socioeconomic
status, and prior academic
achievement. They argue that
sports participation can help to
improve academic performance by
increasing motivation, teaching
teamwork and self-discipline, and
providing a positive outlet for
stress.
The authors also suggest that
15
sports participation can help to
reduce dropout rates and improve
college attendance rates.

participation had a positive effect
on academic performance, even
after controlling for a variety of
factors such as family background,
socioeconomic status, and prior
academic achievement. They

likely to graduate from high school
and attend college. They also

Participation in and Don J. Webber This Research was conducted by
Sporting Andrew Mearman and Don J.
Activities Webber to find out the student
participation in Sporting
Activities. The research found that
student participation in sporting
activities has declined in recent

 Increased competition from
other leisure activities, such
as video games and social
media.
 Concerns about safety and
injury.
 Lack of access to facilities
and equipment.
 Increased pressure on
students to achieve
academically.

more accessible and
affordable.
 Promoting the benefits of
physical activity to students
and their families.

CONCLUSION
The study of participation of students in college sports have helped in

finding out the reason behind the absence of participation of students in
University Sports Competition. Although most of the students are
interested in Sports Activities they are reluctant to participate in
University Sports Competitions. According to the findings students are
mostly interested in playing badminton. The college should try to
promote other sports activities as well.

Sports not only includes physical games, it also includes mind games
like chess. The sports department should also try to promote that too.
