Now, our Indians are showing utmost interest on sports. In Asian games, the crew is performing in tremendously. We got many medals in this Asian games as compared to the past 3 times. But we are in the last position in the points table. This is because of lack of infrastructure, financial crisis to the person who is willing to show their talent.

Our India got talent to do everything, but we need perfect coaching for the particular sport or game. Because of this, our youngsters are stepping out of their interest in sports. When they grew up they need to earn money, they start searching for jobs and leave their interest on sports. Exactly they will become busy. So I think this is the main problem for our country's development in sports.

As our country has 70% of youngsters, we can do miracles in sports. Our government should make use of these youngsters and let our country's name and fame fly high.

In my point of view, to nourishing sports in India govt must make effort from grass root levels. Sports should be encouraged as a separate subject in school and youth should be provided all opportunities and required infrastructure. The children should be encouraged in the early age so that they can opted for there career in future. Govt must provide basis infrastructure for sports even in villages. The govt is doing in this direction by encouraging youth through Khelo India and fit India movement.

Parent should be also motivated because many parents didn't consider sports as career and they pressure on children to do well in study rather than sports.

School also plays a big role in constructing future sports. To encourage school govt to ensure provisional of best sports gadget facilities and coaches in school. School to be appreciated with awards which produces sportsmen at national level.

Hello there.

Before starting with the topic, Let me think of a child which has a one and only dream of being a cricketer or a basketball player but the thing is they aren't much confident because dreams need clarity of thoughts. Our human mind thinks about 10 different ideas every minute. Majority of Indian society believe that academic progress is a compulsion. Sports or even any other extracurricular activities are considered secondary as they have a short working span, Early retirement, etc. And what if the person who has talent, Tries hard daily but isn't confident about oneself due to fear of rejection, disapproval etc.

Coming to the topic, Future is decided by working on the foundation. If the General mindset of Indian Society regarding Sports changes positively. Then it would help such young sportspersons that they aren't alone in their fight.

Thank you.

Hello, everyone, I am Praveen.

I got the opportunity to Share my opinion.

So, in my opinion, sport is really a very essential part of our life it maintains our mental as well as physical fitness.

So the future of the sport in Indian will be bright in upcoming days because nowadays people are aware they know what they have to do they can also make sports as a career. But still, something will be required from govt side like proper infrastructure, training programs, good coaches.

Yes, it is very difficult to convince parents about sports because most of them believe that study is everything those who are playing sports is not good and wasting their times in such stupid things. Mostly it happens in rural areas because people are not aware of sports or many things. So govt should take some initiative to promote sports and encourage youth as well as their parents.

Hello friends,

First of all, we have to discuss how to increase attraction about other games instead of cricket. Just think how cricket is more famous after coming of IPL. So for increasing attraction about other game our gov. Should pass some society in which experinced people share their experience and initiate like IPL. Many games have started (ex:PRO KABBADI, HIL, PIL etc) popular but we have far away from that mildstone where all the games all attract just like cricket. We can see people are exited we any player won the medel (ex:HIMA DAS IN ATHLETICS) we only see that time when that person won the medel than after we forgot that game so looking the future of any other games than cricket our government should launch app of soccer games, kabbadi, badminton on play store and ios and give prize to people who score best.

THANK YOU.

Hello everyone,

I am very glad to express my view on this topic "FUTURE OF SPORTS IN INDIA".

There are two types of sports (INDOOR & OUTDOOR).

People mostly like the outdoor game in which there is a craze of cricket.

Mostly ninety per cent of India like cricket.

The performance of the India cricket team is very well as is IIC ranking is one in ODI.

Future of our sportsman is not secure because do not get abetter job after their gaming age.

I think Indian sports have a great future as you can see HIMA DAS and other athletics and sportsperson giving their best for the country.

And also the government helps sportsperson by giving incentives and government jobs sometimes it may take time because of procedural difficulties.

The government should provide good facilities to sportsperson and also encourage them.

Thank you.

The first step to do, to settle the sports in India is, to change the mentality of Parents towards the Sports.

Many parents in India don't believe that there is any career in sports especially Lower and middle-class parents.

For that, we have to change their wrong assumptions into strong beliefs about sports. When we successfully do it, that time is very near that India will top the medallists.

Starting step of this plan is Parents meeting at school levels. As there is a discussion about study there must separate session of sports to discuss. Not only in metro cities but also in rural areas.

As we know about today's lifestyle this is must take action about it. To build the children and our nation.

Since God gifted are very rear persons. We must believe in the hard work of each department related to us.

Thank you for giving me this opportunity.

The topic was very interesting. In India, sports have a major part. And we people giving more respect and we encourage the people Who are interested in sports so the person who is highly talented are definitely having the chance to show their talent. And parents nowadays are giving space to their children and asking for their opinions. If the kid was interested in sports the parents are giving full support to their kid and they are always standing back side of their children to attain their goal. Nowadays parents are acknowledged about education is not only the way to success there is more way to success and they give the space to their children to choose that way. If that was sports they are happy to support their children. So the sports in future was bright.

I think we should forget the idea of India is good at sports because they play good cricket. Because most people think that cricket is the one mainstream sports in this world. Its because of the lack of curiosity on the other sports and the lack of guidance on sports like football and many other. The government should take action in finding out the talented players by organizing the sports programmes on rural areas and also providing the perfect coach who are actually passionate about the sports. In India we have lived up to the restrictions provided by the parents as to prioritize the education over the sports more which has led to many inborn talents and many dreams so I guess the parents themselves should motivate thier kids when they are actually passionate or enthusiastic over something new.

First of all, thanks for giving this opportunity to share my views.

In India every person is capable of something, when we talk about sports, many people have a lot of interest, but due to lack of infrastructure, and encouragement they can't come forward and showcase their skills, they are many factors stopping them, such as support from government, no proper to practice their sports, cricket is one of the famous sport in India, many people like playing cricket, even having a lot of interest, their parents are not supporting them, due to political influence many of the other people getting chance, even they are not good at sports, by taking this into consideration, the government must come forward to encourage all the students irrespective of gender, and provide all the required facilities.
