Why are the objectives needed in physical education and sport.

Physical educators must have goals for their programs. Once the program’s goals have been identified, objectives that will lead to the attainment of the goals should be delineated and clearly defined.

Some reasons for their necessity follow:

1. Objectives will provide a guide for physical educators’ efforts.

2. Objectives will help physical educators better understand the worth of their field.

3. Objectives will help physical educators make more meaningful decisions when issues and problems arise.

4. Objectives will help physical educators better interpret their endeavors to the public.
