SPORTS

While academics are essential, sports play a vital part for a well-rounded education. They promote not only physical fitness but also mental well-being by reducing stress and building resilience. Teamwork, leadership, and social skills blossom on the field or court, while the discipline and focus honed through sports can benefit students in the classroom as well. From building strong bodies to fostering a love of learning, sports in school play a key role in shaping successful young individuals.
Sports hold a prominent place in our school`s curriculum and hence, immense stress is laid on regular games and sports being played by the students at GD Goenka to keep them physically fit and mentally alert. GD Goenka school Panipat has included various sports activities for the students to choose and learn from. Each sport has an assigned coach for guiding, training and mentoring the students for that particular sport.
The school also conducts various inter house competitions and takes part in Inter-School competitions regularly for continuously challenging the students and improving them for higher tournaments. All the students are given equal opportunity to learn and take part in the competitions.
