Due to the deficit of the expected young people’s moral attitudes caused, inter alia, by a crisis of values (considered on the one hand in the context of changes related to the age of adolescence, and on the other hand, to social changes), it is worth to support preventive activities. It can be done thanks to the use of the sports fair play principle as – in the indications of many researchers – a universal principle. It is through its proper observance that we can teach making moral choices – as emphasized by Zofia Żukowska. The humanistic values of sport in the spirit of fair play allow for the development of socially acceptable attitudes. They can be the source of the hierarchy of values of a young person, which will guide them in everyday life situations. The aim of the article is to present the educational potential of sport with the principle of fair play as the basis of Olympism promoted by Pierre de Coubertin, the creator of the modern Olympic Games. This can stimulate the educational reflection of teachers and educators in the context of the possibility of conducting preventive activities in schools, especially today, in the crisis of values that affects young people.

Sport, as a child of modernity, is intertwined with typically modern elements, such as the search for universality, competition, and the fascination for measurement. As modernity is essentially defined, in legal and moral terms, as a search for universally grounded moral principles or basic human rights, modern sports are widely seen as a means to promote typically modern values such as dignity. This paper conceives of the term "dignity" in light of the capabilities approach upheld by Martha Nussbaum and Amartya Sen. According to these authors, dignity is conferred according to certain human basic capabilities that we all are entitled to. This is the reason why this article explores how sport can be a tool for enhancing and exercising such human capabilities. In so doing, I shall argue that the Sport for All ideal provides us with a normative proposal to achieve such a task since it embodies the basic spirit and ethical goals of our modern society. Moreover, connecting the promotion of dignity to the capabilities approach will allow us not just to use sport as a means for development, but also to provide us with specific criteria to evaluate the impact of sport in the wider society regarding the promotion of people‘s dignity.
