Sports & Games have a very important role to play in the growth and development of mind and body. Indian history of sports dates back to the Vedic times when physical exercises were considered to be a mandatory part of religious rituals. Sports & games can be classified into two main categories: outdoor and indoor. In India outdoor sporting activities have a greater mass appeal as compared to indoor ones. Cricket is by far the most popular sport in India. Apart from cricket, India has a global identity in field hockey, chess, lawn tennis, table tennis, formula one racing, badminton, billiards and snooker and to some extent, in football.
