The main purpose of this paper is to briefly examine why people are interested in sport using ideas from the philosophy of sport and to propose recommendations for utilizing sport effectively in physical education programs. Chances are you have participated in or watched sport sometime in the past month or the past week or maybe even today. Have you ever wondered why people are interested in sport? Why do people participate in and/or watch sport when there are seemingly more important things to pursue (e.g., working, caring for family, serving in the community)? How can something like sport attract the attention and interest of so many people?. The philosophy of sport is an academic sub-discipline of kinesiology that examines the meaning and significance of sport, the relationships between sport and other practices such as art and play, the ethics of sport (e.g., fair play, cheating, PEDs), and other sport-related socio-political issues. The methods, insights and research found in the philosophy of sport can be used to investigate why people are interested in sport.
