Abstract Participation in sports plays a vital role in enhancing adolescents' communication skills, teamwork, and social interactions. This study aims to explore the attitudes toward sports among adolescent schoolchildren in the fishing community of Rameswaram, highlighting how sports engagement contributes to physical, mental, and social well-being. Adopting a quantitative, descriptive research design, the study utilized a structured questionnaire to collect data through a convenient sampling method. The research focused on key social determinants, including family, peer influence, community involvement, and access to sports opportunities. Findings reveal that socio-demographic factors significantly shape adolescents’ attitudes toward sports, with male students demonstrating more positive attitudes compared to their female counterparts. Furthermore, the study identifies several infrastructural gaps in coastal schools, such as the lack of sports equipment, facilities, and trained instructors, which hinder active participation in sports. The results underscore the need for targeted interventions to improve sports infrastructure and promote equal opportunities for all adolescents in the community.
