Sports in ABV-IIITM
Together with academics sports is given adequate importance at ABV-IIITM. To encourage sporting activities we have a full-fledged complex, and also games facilities in each of the students’ hostels. We believe it is essential to remain physically fit and alert together with mental sharpness. In addition to a proper infrastructure several sporting events are held throughout the year to keep students bodily engaged.

The best equipments and materials have been used to construct this sports complex. Apart from this complex, there is an additional billiards room in Boys’ Hostel 1, an additional gymnasium in Girls’ Hostel, an additional tennis court, one cricket ground and one football field. Students’ hostels are provided with badminton courts and table tennis boards.
Students interested in swimming may take the assistance of a trainer. However pool remains closed during winter season.
Sporting Activities
Urja – This is an intra-institute. Spread over three days during February/ March, learners are encouraged to participate in this event at least in the form of a spectator. Athletes are always inspired by the presence of a team of supporters. Urja not only tests one’s physical abilities in track and field events but also offers an opportunity for creating a familial bond among different members of learners.
Twaran – Twaran is an inter IIITM athletics meet also held around February/ March every year. Students from four IIITMs in Allahabad, Jabalpur, Kanchipuram, and Gwalior take part in this track and field competition with zeal and enthusiasm. In addition to sporting glories achieved, Twaran provides a platform for interacting with IIITMians across India.
