Auroville Sports Resource Center 2.66

Many people in rural India do not continue with sports activities into adulthood. Yet sports is essential for individual physical well-being and has also several social benefits like channeling aggressive energy through positive and beneficial activities both for the individual and the society.

Sports can also be a platform for excellence, allowing individuals to develop essential skills like: concentration, discipline, cooperation, team work, endurance and to develop their full potential and thereby to help prepare the body for the eventual transformation as envisioned by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother.

Coordination of regular trainings, coaching camps, friendly & goodwill matches and tournaments are part of AVSRC’s on-going efforts towards human unity and subsequent transformation of the Human Species. Strengthening the relation between Auroville and its surrounding villages is another goal, which we try to reach through a growing communication based on the bilateral interest in sports.
