Abstract	Abstract: This research paper examines the significance of resilience for teenage girls as they navigate the various challenges they encounter. The term resilience was introduced in English language in the early 17th century from the Latin verb resilire, meaning to rebound or recoil (Concise Oxford Dictionary, Tenth Edition).The paper explores the definition of resilience, which is the process of effectively adapting in the face of adversity, trauma, or significant stressors. These stressors can range from everyday challenges to more impactful events like gender discrimination, early marriage, and limited access to education and employment. The paper highlights that resilience is not about the absence of distress but rather the development of coping mechanisms to manage, learn from and grow through difficult situations. The research emphasises the importance of fostering resilience in teenage girls, particularly by parents, grandparents, teachers, and well-wishers. It suggests various strategies for cultivating resilience: Prioritising Relationships: Encourage the development of strong, supportive relationships with trustworthy individuals who provide validation and a sense of belonging. Fostering Wellness: Promote self-care practices that encompass physical health, mindfulness, and avoidance of negative coping mechanisms. Finding Purpose: Support the identification of goals, passions, and values, and encourage engagement in activities that provide a sense of purpose and direction. Embracing Healthy Thoughts: Cultivate a positive outlook and acceptance of change, learn from experiences, and seek help when needed. Conclusion: The paper concludes by emphasizing that building resilience is an ongoing process that requires support from loved ones and trusted professionals. It underscores the importance of empowering teenage girls to navigate adversity, overcome challenges, and thrive amidst life's complexities. Understanding the quality of resilience would enhance the probability of the person engaging in sport activities.
