Challenges and Improvement Strategies in School Sports Clubs

Abstract

This article examines the challenges faced by school sports clubs and proposes improvement strategies to address these challenges. Sports have played a critical role in the social structures of societies throughout history. School sports clubs contribute to the development of healthy, active, and social individuals among students. However, they encounter various challenges, including legal regulations, curriculum restrictions, insufficient funding, low participation rates, attitudes of sports administrators, lack of personnel and equipment, inadequate facilities, and time management issues.

Proposed improvement strategies to overcome these challenges include providing more financial support to sports clubs, increasing interest among students through promotion by school administrations, and adjusting training schedules to fit students' academic timetables. Additionally, updating legislation and curricula to meet contemporary needs is emphasized. By addressing these issues, school sports clubs can significantly contribute to the physical, mental, and social development of young people and promote healthy lifestyles.
