Read the passage and answer the questions.

    Sport has tremendous potential to build character, faster moral development, promotes responsibility and ‘teach positive life skill’s to participants. Attainment of these outcomes can be enhanced when winning is placed in perspective . There is a decline of sportspersonship and ethical conduct in sport, a deterioration that permeates sport competition from youth sport to professional sport. The break down in sportspersonship extends beyond the courts and fields and involves sportspersons. Their families, coaches, officials, fans, institutional administrators, corporate sponsors, The media and public at large.

     To address these concerns and to refocus attention on ethical and character-building potential of sport emphasis should be on “pursue victory with honour”, Pursuing victory with honour views ethics as essential to true winning. The best strategy to improve sport is not to de-emphasize winning but to more vigorously emphasize that adherence to ethical standards and sportspersonship is essential to winning in the true sense. When winning is conceptualized in this manner sports contribution to effective development is enhanced.

    Teacher preparation programmes should help their graduates acquire the competencies necessary not only to teach skills and knowledge but also to promote the development of values and ethical judgements. It is important to prepare professionals to undertake this task and not to assume that they know how to do it.

   Promotion of affective development is an important aspect of nonschool-based physical activity programmes for people of all ages.

   To promote a physically active lifestyle among people, engender affective goals to develop confidence in their abilities as movers, a sense of self-worth and an appreciation of the value of health and personal well-being. The participants must be empowered to take responsibility for their life by developing competence in activities that are personally meaningful and satisfying.
