1. INTRODUCTION

Learning will be the procedure by that the person is formed to slip in to the culture and that provides & advances the social order. Physical education has an important role to play as an essential component of basic education which strives at enabling a person to maintain an enriched and life that is abundant of ever changing world.

In the current study regardless of male and female of many geographic location (urban and rural) institution going adolescents exhibited a good attitude towards actual physical education. Once again the mean of the urban college going adolescents was (statistically) much more optimistic compared to the rural counterparts of theirs. From the state of ours much more value has been put to incorporate physical training of school curriculum for times that are extended. This endeavour could be reflected. In areas that are urban a few facilities for games & sports are common - this could be the root cause of increased positive attitudes towards physical training in cities.
