Attempt should be made for management practices of maintenance of sports equipment in polytechnics and colleges of education should be improved. organization management practices should be streamlined by the national colleges of education commission (NCCE ) so that such practices should be common to all colleges of education and become more efficient. Nigerian Colleges of Education should formulate and implement appropriate policy for the successful organization of their sports programme. Nigerian Colleges of Education should provide adequate appropriate and sources of motivation for the students to participate in sports programme. Nigerian Colleges of Education and Polytechnics should involve the individual of students in the decision making process relating to the organization of sports to ensure greater participation of students in sports.
