Certitude Sports

Every afternoon at Certitude 40-50 children between 4 and 16 years of age have physical training in different disciplines. Ten adults are responsible for the training supervision. Various new exercises have been introduced, such as Tai Chi, kho kho, kabbadi, cross, asanas and novelty races.

We have at present tracks for sprinting, a jump pit, an open playground, horizontal and parallel bars, Roman rings, basketball, volleyball, tennis and softball courts.

An open air film projection area allows screening of sports documentaries.

Facilities on the whole are, however, poor and the exposure to severe climatic conditions creates additional problems. Urgent improvements are needed for storage purposes. Bathrooms have to be installed. A sports hall and an all-weather multi-purpose playground to shelter indoor games and theoretical coaching would be a great step forward. Money is needed to buy professional equipment.

Facilities for roller skating and horseback riding form also part of our planning. And an eventual medium-sized swimming pool would be welcome.

A hygienic and pleasant kitchen and dining area need to be installed. A nutritious snack is served after sports and present arrangements are inadequate.
