“Sport is a Passion for Players, not a Business.”―Professor M.S. Rao, Ph.D.
“Sport has the power to
change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people
in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they
understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair.” —Nelson
Mandela
Political interference in
sports is resulting in poor performance in India. At times the selection of
sportspersons is based on favoritism and nepotism. Additionally, there is
corruption in sports and bribes in the selection process. Such things prevent passionate
players from entering into sports. There are instances where the key members of
the committee reject the dedicated and competent sportspersons due to ego,
gender, and other reasons. The silver
lining over the dark cloud in Indian sports is the inspiring contribution by
sportswomen including Mary Kom and P.V. Sindhu. They rose when odds were
stacked against them with their consistent performance and became a role model
for others. Here are some measures to be taken to encourage talented
sportspersons. Hire the selection committee based on their experience with an
ethical background. Encourage the sportspersons who are passionate, dedicated,
hardworking and raise their bar constantly. Ensure transparency in the
selection of players. Check political interference in the selection procedure. Offer
financial and non-financial incentives to the winners.
Career Opportunities in
Sports
Sports build both hard and
soft skills. Hard skills help the players become competent individually while
soft skills help them become competent collectively to win the game. There are
innumerable opportunities for sportspersons. Here are some of them. They can
have a better lifestyle. They can network with eminent personalities across the
industries and the world. They can become celebrities. They can become brand ambassadors
and earn money by endorsing brands. They can become coaches in the long run and
set up their training academies to encourage budding players. Above all, they
can make a difference in society by founding nonprofits and adding value to the
communities.
Sports and Women Empowerment
Sports is no more a man’s
domain. With the success of many Indian sportswomen sports have become open to
all. Sports empower women to dream and achieve big in their life. It improves
their economic status and enhances career opportunities. It serves as a
platform to brand themselves. Above all, it helps in achieving gender equality.
Hence, encourage sports for women globally.
Remember that sport is a
passion for players, not a business. Let hundred incompetent sportspersons
enter into the sport but no competent sportsperson be denied the opportunity to
enter, excel and bring laurels to the nation. Jai Hind.
