The importance of sports training for young people in making a good and useful individual in society

This study aimed to explore the importance of youth sports training in shaping a productive and morally upright individual within society.It focused on the impact of regular sports participation in teams on the players' behavior in their communities and their conduct in various environments during training sessions, in school with peers, or at home with family and the extent to which such involvement contributes to distancing them from negative behaviors and social vices.Ultimately, the goal is to build individuals who are beneficial and responsible members of their society.The research was conducted as a field study on several youth handball teams in the city of Tlemcen, particularly in the "minimes" (junior) category, where significant attention was observed regarding the moral upbringing of young players as a primary objective.The descriptive method, most suitable for such studies, was adopted.Questionnaires were distributed to coaches, parents, and players, with a separate questionnaire for each player.The questionnaires included both group-specific and shared questions.Based on the responses and the players' mid-season performance results, the study reached the following conclusion: Youth sports training plays a crucial role in shaping individuals who are upright and useful to society.This is evidenced by the clear positive influence on players' behavior within their surrounding environment as a result of their sports participation, significantly reducing the likelihood of their involvement in deviant behaviors or exposure to harmful social phenomena.
