Sport Events
In September, every year, the Institute hosts the Sports Fest – an intercollegiate meet for local colleges in tennis, volleyball, basketball, hockey, football, table tennis, weightlifting and badminton.Â
IIT Madras plays host to two major All India Inter Collegiate Tournaments for Boys and Girls, namely the GF&KR All India Invitational Basketball Tournament and the Jimmy George Tournament for Volleyball. The Sanmar Tournament for Cricket, where the Institute’s cricket team takes on other teams, is yet another prestigious event hosted by the Institute.
The even semester arrives and serves quite a feast of another set of boisterous sporting events – The Dean’s Trophy. With events like six-a-side footer, bridge, chess and cycling to name a few, the Dean’s Trophy sees just the same amount of fierce competition as the Schroeter. For those wanting more, the various departments have their own sporting events, all played at Sangam under intense floodlights. The Gymkhana Day, in all its honor and glory, finally marks the culmination of all sports activities for the academic year. With glory in the air, the winning hostels are sure to make some fierce celebration cries.
