Abstract
Sports and games have a little influence on the Indian society and we are least concerned about the physical and mental fitness. This is reflected in the curriculum where psychological interventions in the life of a sports person is perceived as unnecessary or as elitism. Most of us are fascinated by the achievements and successes of elite athletes, who train for years to have the opportunity to reach their goals on the world stage. Of all the skills that athletes and sportsmen possess, the most under appreciated ability is a sportsman’s mental acuity.
