Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Studies have demonstrated that educational physical and sports activities contribute significantly to human development, which represents the cornerstone of any progress and prosperity. Therefore, many countries have focused their attention on this vital field, incorporating it into their educational curricula and establishing specialized institutes and laboratories to conduct research and studies that contribute to enhancing the status of physical education and sports sciences among other academic disciplines.Adolescence is considered a transitional period during which individuals undergo a series of comprehensive changes that prepare them to move from an immature child to a mature adult capable of assuming responsibility. This stage plays a significant role in shaping the individual's future personality, as a healthy adolescence contributes to the individual's well-being, whereas an unhealthy one may have negative consequences.During this important stage, adolescents experience an enormous range of emotions and pressures that may sometimes overwhelm them and lead them away from the right path. Consequently, many adolescents resort to engaging in physical and sports activities, whether within or outside the school environment, viewing them as a safe refuge and an effective outlet through which they can release their emotions and relieve their psychological pressures. These activities also help them regain their physical, psychological, and mental balance and health, thereby enabling them to develop a strong personality capable of facing life's challenges.
