There is no doubt that many outdoor games, such as football, hockey and cricket, are very good for mental and physical growth of boys and girls. They provide physical exercise as well as mental growth, as games improve upon the concentration as well as confidence to win. Moreover, playing games improve upon skills of one by training them to work together in a team, teach corporate discipline, and so promote what is called ‘espirt de corps’.

All this would be agreed to by everyone that to play games is most important part of our life and thus can not be overlooked. Most of the people are of opinion that playing games should be made compulsory in the schools as well as colleges and other educational institutions so as to develop the minds and skills of the every being. Now-a-days, most of educational institutions have introduced lot many games including chess, carom, badminton, swimming, horse-riding, cricket, hockey, football, squash and such other games at grass root level say even in pre-school stages too. They are of the view that playing games improve upon concentration besides children indulging in games are more attentive to their studies.

However, as logical there are some who would argue and are against this thought pleading that games discourage one from the studies and if they loose in the games also hurt their confidence. They also argue that playing games make one specially kids more violent than normal ones because to win makes them hungry for success but loosing reduces their confidence and make them violent. There have been numerous cases of such children across the world when children of different ages have been found to be violent after being deprived of success in the games and field they were in.

Apart from these different arguments, no body can challenge the thought of inspiration and concentration one improves when participating in games. Even indoor games also produce same result however, deprive the participants of physical exercises must for a fit and healthy body.
