Sports
- Physical Development
For the overall development of
a child’s personality and skill, a healthy
mind is required and a healthy mind can only reside
in a healthy body. This is the concept that is
followed by our institutions while initiating
children into sports. Every student is encouraged
to run and jog as this develops the basic foundation
for any sport.
As an institution, our Vision
for sports in the long term is to provide thorough
training to the young generation to ensure maximum
participation and substantial victory in the Olympic
Games to be held in the year 2020. It has been
critical for us to develop the lesser known sports
viz., Football, Handball, Badminton, Swimming,
Volleyball, Skating, Baseball, Rugby, Hockey etc.,
which is progressing well within our schools.
With this vision in mind, our Chairman –
Dr. Augustine Pinto had setup the “Ryan
International Sport Club”, dedicated to
provide facilities for practicing games and sports
for students and adults in well organized center
s manned by experienced professional coaches.
We believe that the key to achieving excellence
in sports lies in integrating sports and physical
education with the regular educational curriculum,
making it a compulsory subject of learning up
to the secondary school level and incorporating
it during the assessment of students. Our students
have won in several International, National and
State – level sports competitions organized
in India and abroad. Our students had recently
visited AC Milan, Italy for a training session
in football and we have organized several Athletic
meets and mini – marathon races in different
parts of India, since the last 9 years.
Participation in the Ryan Athletic
Meet grew from 1600 participants from 48 schools,
collages and clubs in 1998 to a record breaking
29,100 participants from 245 Institutions in 2001,
placing Ryan International Sports Club in the
Limca Book of Records – edition 2003 for
organizing the Largest Track & Field events
in India.
The group was also honoured by
the Limca Book of Records for organizing the biggest
Shito – Ryu Karate Demonstration in the
World (year 2002) at Wright Town Stadium, Jabalpur.
