- Schools therefore should focus on participation rather than competition.
- school sports programmes that are linked to a broader community engagement are more likely to encourage continuing participation into adulthood.
- the School Sports Development Committee is set up to promote a comprehensive, flexible and coordinated sports programme across the entire school environment
- Parents need to be supportive in their children’s participation in sports.
- Sports for all is about “enculturation” and strengthening programmes that are inclusive yet diverse to cater for different non-competitive interests.
