It is important to participate in physical activities not only because it supports physical growth as it improves blood circulation, respiratory function, but also improves mental health, emotional status, as well as increased attention span, increased concentration, executive functioning, cognitive skills, and academic performance. In this study, the importance of physical activity participation in youth was discussed in great depth and an experiment based on self health chart was reported to demonstrate the positive effect of sports on youth health development.
