Abstract

It is not long back when there was no formal subject of Physical Education or Sports Science in our educational institutions. In the beginning, it was just an exercise class without any reading or writing work. The academic progress of the subject is needed to attain international standards both in the general status of Physical Education and in sports competitions. There is a large gap between the existing and required number on qualified sports science manpower. Opening of academic channels for producing expert manpower in many sports science disciplines like Sports Morphology, Kinanthropometry, Physiology, Nutrition, Biomechanics, Psychology, Sociology, Kinesiology, Child Development, Health Education, Pedagogy, Sports History and Spoirts Genetics, is best possible through the creation of Sports Culture Universities. This would provide appropriate scope for the simultaneous development of all branches of sports science resulting in multidisciplinary as well as interdisciplinary progress in the field of Sports and Physical education.
