Din (2006) conducted a study to ascertain the effects of sports activities on the academic
development of its participants in high schools of rural areas. A total of 225 students from 5
different rural high schools of Kentucky area of the Appalachian Mountains region were taken
as sample of the study. Post-sports season academic record and standing of the students taking
part in sports, was compared to their pre-sports season academic record, in the subjects of English, Math, Sciences and Social sciences. The findings of the study done by Din indicate no
significant impact of “school-sponsored” sports activities on the academic enhancement of the
students taking part in sports.
Three research studies were conducted to know the relation between sports and academic
performance. The result of two studies indicated that there is no positive and negative relation
between participation in sports and academic performance while one study, which was
conducted in Canada in 2000, indicated a negative association between participation in sports
and standardized test scores (Daley and Ryan, 2000; Fisher, Juszczak and Friedman, 1996;
Tremblay, Inman and Williams, 2000).
