Abstract	The aim of this article is to emphasize and acknowledge traditional sports and games (TSG) as an important historical and sociocultural phenomenon. By describing 'the traditional sports and games movement' from its organization to some key ideas, the author shows how local and national heritage of physical culture is important to every society. Within the current process of globalization, people need to be aware of their heritage and identity. Various forms of our own, indigenous physical activity (PA) are part of this identity. In this paper, l would also like to find an answer to the question: in what sporting traditions' do we want to initiate our young? Our concerns are historical and pedagogical influences that shaped what we call today physical education (PE) but also cultural and social changes of each society, creating its own ways of contributing to physical culture in a local, but also in a global sense. l would argue that there is much to learn from the past physical heritage from different part of the world. Moreover, PE is in decline'. What needs to be changed is the quality and range of contents. In that sense we should be introducing students to the sporting heritage by including traditional pastimes activities and games in teaching. lt may be a fresh and attractive alternative supplementary to already existing sport-model PE implemented at schools.
