Besides the obvious physical health benefits of sports and exercise, sports help learners begin to cultivate skills that will benefit them in the future as leaders and as productive members of society.
Sports participation and education teach comradery, patriotism, teamwork, accountability as well as desire to increase their own skills and abilities.
At Ephphatha, sports includes organized sports like soccer and basket ball to play activities and guided activities. These activities broaden the experience spectrum of our learners and increase their physical ability and instill the need for an active lifestyle and a productive life.
Teachers also participate in sports activities with students. It’s not about just winning or competing, it’s about the process and the ups and downs that come with teamwork and working towards a common goal.
