Sports: an integral part of Indian culture and the history of Indian sports dates back to the Vedic era. As per saying in Atharva-Veda, “Duty is in my right hand and the fruits of victory in my left”. By keeping this quote in mind, Presidium inculcates the feeling of sportsmanship in every Presidian. The mantra that Presidians follow coincides with today’s traditional Olympic oath, “For the Honour of my country and the Glory of Sport”.Students of Presidium Raj Nagar celebrated National Sports Day to mark the birth anniversary of Indian hockey wizard Major Dhyan Chand, the hockey player who won gold decorations in Olympics for India in the years 1928, 1934 and 1936. A speech was delivered to instil in every Presidian team-spirit which fosters Leadership. Various sports events were conducted in the school premises including Yoga. Students along with the teachers participated with great zeal and enthusiasm in the events. The event proceeded with a vivacious dance performance.
