	abstract = {This research investigates the integration of physical-sports activities into maritime education to enhance resilience and professional readiness among students. Utilising qualitative methods, the study explores pedagogical effectiveness, curriculum development aligned with industry standards, and the impact on physical and mental resilience. Findings reveal that experiential and problem-based learning approaches significantly prepare students for real-world maritime challenges. Curriculum flexibility ensures adaptation to industry demands, incorporating safety protocols and health management. Enhanced physical endurance and mental toughness among students underscore the benefits of sports education in fostering resilience. Team cohesion, facilitated through collaborative activities, promotes effective teamwork crucial in maritime operations. The research highlights the transformative potential of sports education in shaping skilled and resilient maritime professionals capable of navigating complex operational environments. Implications suggest ongoing innovation in educational practices to sustain industry relevance and prepare students for future maritime leadership roles.},
