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.
