Chapter Authors: Onur GÜLTEKİN, Emrecan AZILI, Yusuf ŞAHİN

Pages: 97-106

Today, it is widely accepted across all segments of society that sports are an essential activity for individuals to develop their skills, maintain their health, and improve their overall well-being. Encouraging individuals to participate in sports not only increases their physical fitness, but also serves as a critical factor in facilitating the maximization of their productivity and performance in their activities (work, education, etc.). In this context, the direct positive effects of sports on an individual’s overall quality of life and productivity have become a scientifically and socially proven necessity. The purpose of this study is to highlight the importance of physical education and sports in the development of society. In conclusion, sports have become an integral part of human life, playing a vital role in ensuring that individuals remain healthy, successful, and happy throughout their lives, while also maintaining high morale. Sports are a critical factor in alleviating social isolation and preventing the tendency to act irresponsibly alone. Through sporting activities, individuals experience a sense of shared purpose and collective action. This contributes to the emergence of unity, solidarity, and common ideals within society. Societies with such a strong structure are very difficult to dissolve or destroy. Therefore, sport should be recognized as an indispensable phenomenon in terms of physical, mental, and social development.
