National Sports Day in India is celebrated every year on 29
August to commemorate the birth anniversary of Major Dhyan Chand - the
legendary hockey champion. The day is also observed to appreciate and honor the
athletes of
the country who have been rewarded with prestigious laurels for their wonderful
contributions in different sports.
The
main idea behind celebrating the National Sports Day is to create awareness among people
about the benefits of sports, sportsmanship, teamwork, besides encouraging them
to opt sports as career.
