Among the main results are that throughout the text, we highlight how practicing sports contributes to promoting health, encouraging the adoption of healthy lifestyle habits and preventing various medical conditions. Additionally, we examine the psychological benefits of sport, such as developing resilience skills, self-esteem and stress management. In the educational sphere, we explore how sport can be an effective tool for teaching values such as teamwork, discipline and mutual respect. We conclude by emphasizing that sport not only contributes to physical development, but is a valuable tool for forming responsible, healthy and socially engaged citizens. This work seeks to contribute to a deeper understanding of the relationship between sport and individual training, offering subsidies for the promotion of policies and practices that encourage sports participation as an integral part of the educational process.
