Abstract

The research study aims to determine traditional sports and their influence on community health in rural Chile. Customary sports, steeped in cultural history, substantially contribute to these communities' general well-being. The study examines how these activities affect social cohesiveness, physical health, and cultural preservation. The research study was based on primary data analysis to determine the use of smart PLS software and generate informative results, including descriptive statistical analysis, correlation coefficient analysis, and the smart PLS Algorithm model between them. The study looks at conventional sports participation from a holistic perspective to see how it affects lifestyle decisions, mental health, and employment prospects. The overall research found that traditional sports positively and significantly influence community health in rural Chile. The results highlight how crucial these initiatives are for maintaining cultural identity, building a feeling of community, and advancing overall health among rural Chilean communities
