Exam-oriented handwritten-style notes — every page laid out like class notes, with highlighting, boxes and a mind map, built to be read the night before rather than skimmed.
Unit 9 of the CBSE Class 11 Physical Education theory paper (subject code 048, 70 marks) is Psychology and Sports. CBSE’s 2026-27 unit table gives it 7 marks. Class 11 is examined by your school, on the design CBSE uses for Class 12. The notes follow CBSE’s syllabus topic by topic and CBSE’s own Class XI textbook.

From The Savvy Humanities by Aditi Ojha (Savvy Ma’am). These Physical Education notes are built from CBSE’s own 2026-27 syllabus and CBSE’s Class XI Physical Education textbook, unit by unit; where the textbook itself slips, the notes say so and give the correct version. Savvy Ma’am’s YouTube classes are in Psychology, Sociology and Political Science; there are no video lessons for Physical Education.
