that 78.2% participated in their sport activities in public areas, 13.6% at home while a few respondents reported
to participate in their sport activities at clubs (5.4%). The study recommends organizing various sport
programmes after school hours so as to take maximum advantage of schools facilities and a concerted effort
should be made by all parents, teachers, school administrators and the community to improve the general
