Since the inception of this world, food was the first priority for humankind for the maintenance of his/her health. As time passed people got engaged in different activities other than food and health, the sports became the major option for their leisure.

Sport seems to involve basic human skills being developed and exercised for their own sake, in parallel with being exercised for their usefulness. It also shows how society has changed its beliefs and therefore there are changes in the rules.
“Of course, as we go further back in history the dwindling evidence makes the theories of the origins and purposes of sport difficult to support”.
