Benefits of Sports for children with disabilities
Sport for development is an approach based on the belief that play or sport is not just an end in itself but also an effective way to help achieve larger developmental goals.
Global evidence reveals that sport-based programs which are explicitly designed to address the needs of particular sections of the population have the potential to prevent disease, increase school attendance, improve learning skills, foster gender equity, enhance inclusion of persons with disabilities and build skills that promote employment and economic development.
Broad set of holistic skills associated with learning through play and sports are:
- Physical skills – being physically active with movement through space develops motor skills and nurtures an active and healthy body.
- Health benefits.
- Channeling of energy
- Improved muscle tone and postural alignment
- Better blood flow and oxygenation, leading to improved heart and mind development
- Emotional skills – understand, manage and express emotions by building self-awareness and handling impulses, as well as staying motivated and confident in the face of difficulties
- Cognitive skills – concentration, problem solving, and flexible thinking by learning to tackle complex tasks and building effective strategies to identify solutions
- Social skills – collaborate, communicate and understand other people’s perspectives through sharing ideas, negotiating rules and building empathy
- Creative skills – coming up with ideas, expressing them and transforming them into reality by creating associations, symbolising and representing ideas and providing meaningful experiences for others.
