Sports is a fact of life. It makes individual, families, and communities grow strong and healthy in so many ways—physically, emotionally, socially, and economically. Without sports activities, life appears to be dull, boring, and uneventful. With the advent of globalization of sports, the need to value it as a way of life becomes even more challenging and perplexing among nation-states, local institutions, sports organizations, and other sports stakeholders and actors, particularly in the field of governance.
More importantly, sports governance enables national sports to achieve greater heights—a source of national pride, joy, and honor for country and its people. Sports governance is an outstanding precondition and prerequisite for global prestige and reputation as sports excellence highly equates with social, economic,
and political growth and development even making countries a sports haven for tourism.
