In the digital age, computers are being used to augment and ease all areas of human activities. In the field of physical education and training too, computers have come to be instrumental in all possible areas. The range of applications of computers in physical education is wide- from educational software, activity designing and planning, motion examination, biomechanics video analysis, performance comparing and synchronizing, distance and time measurements and activity evaluation to predictions of best possible outcomes through permutations and combinations of players and their methods. The intersection of Computer science in physical education and training creates an interdisciplinary field that opens a wide area of methods and methodologies with the goal of enhancing the quality of physical development and specialisation. The interdisciplinarity of the field is not limited to computer applications but also extends to mathematical techniques in sports science, biomechanics, health and so on. The aim of the paper is to systematically study the various applications of computers in the field of physical education and training and their effects on the same. Although it is generally agreed upon that the digital-revolutionization of the field is needed, it is important to understand the possible methods of the same. The methods of application of computer technology into physical education and training will shape the future of its trends and development.
