“A healthy mind in a healthy body.”-Juvenal. 

A healthy body is home to a healthy mind. Such a body is like a temple and the combination will produce results which will be a model of perfection. That is why we emphasise upon the importance of sports and extracurricular activities in a student’s life. For this purpose we have included sports as an active body at our campus. Facilities include tennis court, cricket pitches, football ground, volleyball court, basketball court, badminton court, gymnasium facilities for athletics and fitness training. Indulgence in sports instills the qualities such as cooperation, team work confidence among the participant which in turn infuses social skills in the participants. Thus, we ensure that the students when leave SIT will have an all rounded personality and is fit enough to emerge as a winner.
