In the present study social behaviour among secondary students was compared on the basis of their participation in competitive sports. 50 player boys (Ave. age 16.97 yrs) and 50 non player boys (Ave. age 17.11 yrs) were selected from secondary schools of Bilaspur city. The criterion for selection of player boys was participation in district/state level tournaments in any sporting event. Random sampling method was used for selection of sample in the present study. To assess social behaviour, Social Skills Problem Behaviour Checklist prepared by Madhu Mathur and Saroj Arora (2005) was used. It was found that problematic social behaviour was significantly in more magnitude in non-player boys as compared to player boys studying in secondary schools. It was concluded that participation in sports emerged as good medium to enhance social behaviour of secondary students.
