Abstract: Not only physical education, physical activity, and extracurricular activities in school contribute to the good physical condition and health of students, but it also helps teenagers to better practice and understand it, which will have positive repercussions for them in the future and throughout their lives. Even more than that, the concepts of fair play, team spirit, and respect for the opponent, which are developed through physical education and sports in school, assist in the development of social awareness and self-awareness, and provide a general understanding of the rules of the sport. These are abilities that student can later use in their advantage in other school subjects or in real life situations. The encouragement of physical exercise has garnered a lot of attention in recent years, particularly in Europe and across the world, as a result of the many advantages that it provides.
