ABSTRACT
This study compared the relationship between the self concept among school children who took part in sports and those who did not. The sample comprised 150 children, aged 14-16 years. Self-concept was assessed using the Pierres Harris Self-Concept Scale consisting of 40 questions. Students were classified into sportsman and non sportsman based on their participation in active sports and participation at the district level tournaments. The data was analysed using “t” test for each of the measure at .05 level of confidence. The self concept level of the students who are sportsman is higher than those of the students who are non sportsman.
