Indian Sports Associations

Sports have been one of the most loved activities in India. Right from hockey, cricket, football, badminton, tennis to golf, swimming and archery, almost every one indulges in one or the other form of sports. Gone are the days when different sports were mainly played for recreational purpose or to satisfy the fitness demands. In the present times, sports in India are essentially played for competitive and occupational purpose. With time, the mindset of people has also undergone a change.
