2023 WWC: Our target is to reach knockout stage, says Waldrum

It has been said that anyone who aspires to be an effective leader will need to be equipped with both intrapersonal and interpersonal skills. Individual sports like athletics teach one critical intrapersonal skills which relates to emotional intelligence and these include the ability to focus, self-confidence, resilience and self-discipline. Similarly, team sports such as football and basketball help the individual to develop interpersonal skills such as the art of communication, being a team player, empathy, responsibility, dependability, patience and adaptability. Contrary to the belief of many African educators, the regular playing of sports at school does not amount to a waste of time but moulds character and nurtures qualitative leadership.
