She adds that participation in school sports provides a sense of belonging and as learners interact with one another in a fun way.
Sports also supports the healthy development of the heart, lungs, muscles and bones. What’s more, it also improves agility, coordination and balance. Exercise also helps reduce stress levels, anxiety and behavioural problems. Regular physical activity helps one to relax and reduces muscular tension.
