نواب صاحب چھتاری
ان سطروں کو لکھتے وقت جناب نواب صاحب چھتاری کی رحلت کی خبر ملی، ان کی کتاب زندگی کے خاتمہ پر جاہ، ثروت، رتبہ، وزن، وقار، دینداری، وضعداری، فراخدلی، رواداری، سیرچشمی اور ہر دلعزیزی کا ایک صحیفہ بھی ختم ہوگیا، اﷲ تعالیٰ نے ان کو دنیا کی تمام نعمتوں سے سرفراز رکھا، دعا ہے کہ آخرت میں بھی وہ برکت خداوندی کے کوثر و تسنیم سے سیراب ہوتے رہیں، آمین۔ (صباح الدین عبدالرحمن، جنوری ۱۹۸۲ء)

People generally participate in sport without demographic, social, racial or classic discrimination but each person enters the sport with different types of motivating factor behind his/her participation in sport. The motive behind participation in sport of one person may differ from the other on account of the fact that every individual has got different type of mentality, mood, choice, taste and area of interest. These varied constructs of the choice establish motive of a person towards participation in the activity either it is sport or any other undertaking of everyday life. This study was undertaken with the basic objective to determine the motivating factors of the players representing different segments of the community towards their participation in different activities of sport.
