UNIVERSALIZE SPORTS FACILITIES IN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS : Sports infrastructure within the school system is not only most inadequate, it has, in fact, been in serious decline. The availability of other sports facilities like indoor halls, gymnasia, equipment etc. is even less than the basic outdoor playfields. This is a very unfortunate development, which reflects the declining importance of sport and physical education in school education. The Comprehensive Sports Policy, therefore, reiterates the critical importance of sports and games in educational institutions to the achievement of the Policy’s objectives and seeks to: (A) Get physical education and sports made an integral part of the curriculum up to the higher secondary level.

INTEGRATION OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND SPORTS IN SCHOOL :

(A) School is the maternity home for physical education curriculum and sports. Physical Education and sports is the integral part of general education Physical education & sports is to be treated as compulsory subject from Class 1 to X In Class XI and XII and at college and University level the subject to be treated as optional subject. Necessary syllabus for the compulsory and optional subject should be adopted for implementation as a part of educational system. (B) It is to be assured that each and every student of a school is made to play at least one or two games and school routine is prepared in such a way that every class has got chance to attend at least 2-3 period in a week. The Arunachal Pradesh Extraordinary Gazette, October 3 2017 5 12. TECHNICAL SUPPORT AND SCIENTIFIC BACK UP : With the unfolding of the international standard of sports thorough the television and other media the realization that right technical knowledge is required for a sports person from the beginning of his career has become an imperative. Such requirement demands availability of competent coaches in all discipline of sports. Endeavour will therefore, be made with the aid of a joint venture of the state Government and Sports Authority of Arunachal, & State Olympic Association to appoint coaches and make them available to the sports clubs and Sports associations for arranging coaching camp. Moreover, the Physical Instructor of Schools/Colleges and Physical Training Instructors/Physical Education Teachers of School and Colleges will be adequately trained for providing technical guidance to the Students and Youths. Physio-therapy centre will be established for rehabilitation of injured sports persons and Yoga classes will be conducted for proper physical and mental tuning up of sports persons prior to competitive sports. 13. IDENTIFICATION OF SPORTS TALENTS : Identification of Sports talent is a must for making any head way for promotion of games and sports to achieve result. To find out talents and to develop pre-requisite game abilities (conditional & Cord national) of latent talent, training and coaching play a vital role. Again latent talent can be found through mass participation and conducting of competitions/tournaments at various levels. Emphasis should be laid for mass participation in physical education & Sports through integration of physical Education Sports in School curriculum and sports in rural areas. The competition is to be strengthened in school and rural level competition. Stress to be attached for district-wise Inter-school and Inter district School tournament on the state identified games; Play Centres may be opened at Panchayat level, Village throughout State with necessary assistance of Panchayat organization to search a large number of talents for the long term benefits. A Ground of expert will conduct preliminary coaching in selected school for a definite duration followed by a preliminary screening. Further basis training in a district coaching centre for a longer period. 14. MASS PARTICIPATION FOR SPORTS CULTURE AND COMPETITIONS : Serious and sustained efforts at providing universal access to sports facilities and social development through sports will create the required enthusiasm and motivation among the general public, and particularly the youth, to participate in sports activities. While the Central government will foster a pervasive sports culture in the State, it should be recognized that competition is the soul of sports. Accordingly, the State government will take the following steps to institutionalize sports competitions in various disciplines to involve the proficient and build a healthy competitive environment to create opportunities for talent search and development. 15. FOSTERING A SPORTS CLUB CULTURE : Encourage and support the setting up in both rural and urban areas, with particular emphasis on poorer localities, of a variety of public and private sports and youth development institutions, as well as sports and health clubs, to enable the young and the old, men and women, the physically challenged and the children, casual players and serious contenders, employees and professionals, the health conscious and talented sportspersons, to find a suitable playing environment to meet their playing needs.

They could also avail of the governmental programmes and schemes to provide the required facilities, equipment and technical support. 16. PROMOTING SPORTS COMPETITIONS : Encourage and incentivize the National Sports Federations and their state, district and local constituent units, as also other sports administrative bodies like the Sports Authority of India and its counterparts in the States as well as the States themselves, besides the sports control boards of the Railways and Defence services, the Association of Indian Universities (AIU), School Games Federation of India (SGFI) [etc.], to organize on a massive scale a wide variety of individual and team-based sports competitions in their respective disciplines to cover both area-based competitions at inter-village/block/ district/State/national level and between institutions such as interschool/college/university/club/youth club/sports club, as well as community-based informal organizations. Such competitions would be organized from the village level upwards up to the All-India level for different categories of players like men, women, juniors and sub-juniors, veterans, and the physically challenged. Apart from annual knock- out tournaments at higher levels, the league format would be specially promoted for such competitions throughout the year at the local level. All participants in each category would be further sub categorized in to different grades in accordance with their performance levels so as to provide fair competition to everyone. The league format has the twin advantage of increasing the number of matches manifold and yet being extremely cost-effective for the organizers as the teams bear the small logistical costs of bilateral visits. The high number of matches sustains interest in the sport at the grassroots level as well as provides a fairer opportunity for every competitor/team to show their prowess for talent search. 17. STATE FLAGSHIP PROGRAMME : The State Flagship Programme is being organised for mass participation in games & sports for meaningful involvement of the youth especially in rural population. 6 The Arunachal Pradesh Extraordinary Gazette, October 3, 2017 18.

(E) ‘TRADITIONAL ARCHERY’: Traditional Archery is the most popular indigenous game played by all tribes of Arunachal Pradesh. Competitions are organized in every traditional festival. List could be indefinitely lengthened. This list is merely illustrative. II. The key element of the overall strategy of the Sports Policy is to include securing national and international recognition for indigenous games in which we have a natural, cultural and civilisational advantage, an activity which advances community pride and self-confidence, where expertise and facilities for training/coaching are, by definition, locally available, where local spectator participation is assured, where domestic and even international rural tourism is likely to be generated, and where some indigenous games can attain the kind of international recognition and support those indigenous East Asian disciplines. The Arunachal Pradesh Extraordinary Gazette, October 3 2017 7 25. PROMOTION OF SPORT AMONG YOUNG GIRLS AND WOMEN : Particularly in rural Areas of the State, and many segments of urban Society as well, there is significant gender discrimination in respect of even the limited access to organized games and sports. Moreover, social practices, and physical differences between the genders, usually make it imperative that separate but equal facilities be made available to girls and boys, men and women ensuring such an equitable bridging of the gender divide in sports must be a key element of the strategy for implementing the Comprehensive Sports Policy. 26. EMPLOYMENT AND INCENTIVES : Adequate incentive shall be provided to those who excel in Sports/Youth activities, Special incentives is also to be given to outstanding sports persons/Youth through employment (There will be Job reservation of 10% in the Police Department and 5% in all other Departments of Government of Arunachal Pradesh for the meritorious sports persons of Arunachal Pradesh.

EXCELLENCE IN SPORTS : I. International competitive sports have become extremely expensive owing to investments required in equipment, participation in competitive events throughout the year, costly coaching and training services etc. In India, the Central government has been supporting high performing national sportspersons to represent the country and participate in recognized international competitions. For all other purposes, the sportspersons have been left to their own devices. In many cases, corporate sponsors step in to provide resources to sportspersons to train and gain international exposures in return for commercial endorsements and brand ambassador duties for the sponsors. While this has been helpful in individual cases, the sponsors usually select glamorous sports and sportspersons. This may not always lead to the most desirable results or to the most deserving sports persons. II. Under the Sports Policy, the State government commits itself to systematically providing the necessary financial and other support to outstanding excellent sportspersons to give them the best chance to pursue their goals of winning medals in Recognized National & International competitions. The State government, in association with the State Olympic Association & State Sports Associations, will identify outstanding sports persons who have achieved benchmarked performances in individual or team events and have the potential to win National, Olympic and World Championship medals in their respective sports. Such sports persons would not only be given specialized individualized coaching at the Centre of Excellence in India and abroad, but would also be financially supported to pursue their respective medal goals with strategic national & international exposures, personalized coaching and support staff, financial incentives and assurances of suitable employment and financial security at the end of their active sports careers. They will also be encouraged and financed to contribute to their sports by setting up academies to train other sportspersons, given recognition and rewards in terms of high public assignments etc. Corporate entities would also be encouraged to co-finance the training activities for medals or post retirement projects of such outstanding sportspersons. 8 The Arunachal Pradesh Extraordinary Gazette, October 3, 2017 III. To achieve the highest levels of performance at the highest levels of national & international competition, a well-formulated, target-oriented and need-based approach will be adopted incorporating the following elements : (a) Ensuring fair and reasonable opportunities to all talented young sportspersons, irrespective of economic background, social origin, gender or regional location, to fully realize their potential, and win laurels for themselves and glory for the nation; (b) Promoting a competitive sports culture by harnessing sports development to youth development and youth development to national development so that the culture of sports acts a critical engine of accelerated and inclusive economic growth.

Counselling for making a career in sports with a clear understanding on the financial and academic arrangements would determine the selection of the talented youngsters. The selected youngsters would then be admitted to specialised sports schools or academies which combine a strict sports regime with a normal academic curriculum. 31. SPORTS SCHOOLS AND ACADEMIES : The state government will encourage and financially support to set up one or more Sports schools/ Academy’s where high-end facilities and competent coaches in the selected sports discipline would be provided along with residential accommodation for all the talented players. All common services like gyms, sports doctors, trainers, masseurs, entertainment, extra-curricular activities etc. would be made available.
