This paper explores the significant role of sports in disaster preparedness and recovery. Sports, often overlooked in disaster management strategies, can serve as powerful tools to enhance community resilience and facilitate post-disaster recovery. The abstract delves into how sports can foster a sense of unity, encourage physical and mental well-being, and contribute to the economic revitalization of affected areas. By examining case studies and theoretical frameworks, the paper uncovers the multifaceted contributions of sports to disaster-affected communities. It highlights the importance of sport-based interventions in promoting disaster risk reduction, emergency response, and long-term recovery efforts. Furthermore, the discussion underscores the need for policymakers and disaster management stakeholders to recognize and integrate sports into comprehensive disaster management strategies.
