The sports initiative at GIIS Noida includes both outdoor and indoor games. The classes are held on Saturdays under the guidance of specialised coaches. The school facilities provide a platform for Taekwondoo, Basket Ball, Skating, Swimming, Chess and Cricket under the aegis of Chandu Borde Global Cricket Academy.

“The whole idea of playing friendly cricket match against another good school in the vicinity was to have our children exposed to competition and give them the motivation to try to better their efforts and hone their skills better. Today playing on Home ground, GIIS Noida has faced a mild challenge. The intensity of this challenge will be stepped up in the next round when they play on another school ground.”
