Sports :
| The Vidyasagar University was established on 29th September, 1981 after the name of Pandit Iswar Chandra Vidyasagar, the great educationist and social reformer of Bengal with a mission to meet the divergent region-ethnic, socio-cultural and geographical need along with the mainstream education. The University logo with the motto "EDUCATION, KNOWLEDGE, PROGRESS" embodies the mission as stated. |
| Since its foundation, Games and Sports activities of the Vniversity have always remained and integral part of its academic achivements. The 1st Inter-College and Post Graduate athletic meet was organised in 1986. Since then, the games and sports activities and the interest orf students in games and sports have been growing continiously with the guidance and encouragement from University Sports Authority and Midnapore Distric Sports Development Academy. Sports events like Athletics, Football, Volleyball, Kho-Kho, Swimming, Kabadi, Cricket competition are now being organised regularly as per our Sports Calendar. In the Yer 2007, we have organised 21st Inter-College Volleyball Tournament and 3rd Inder-College Kho-Kho (Men & Women) tournaments at out own playground, where a large number of participants took part. We are now organising the 22nd Inter-College Athletic Meet 2008. |
| The University has also shown a remarkable performance in All India Inter-University Tournaments and all Bengal Inter-University Tournaments even with the limited infrastructural facilities. A number of times the University Football Team have been qualified from East Zone and participated in All India Inter-University tournament. This year (2007) The University Football Team qualified and participated All India Inter-University Football tournament which was held at Bihar University. This year for first time we participated in North-East Zone Inter-University Kho-Kho (Men) tournament which was held at M.D.University, Rohtak, Haryana. The Table Tennis and Swiming Teams also participates regularly in Inter-University tournaments. |
| We had no sports complex / playground since long. For the last twenty years in our journey over such a long track we have received guidance and infrastructural facilities in terms of playground, Sports Accessories, Sports Official and Technical support from Midnapur District Sport Development Academy for organising Inter-College Tournaments, selection trial etc. we are really greateful to the authorities of the Midnapore Distric Sports Development Academy under the leadership of Prof. Dipak Sarkar. |
| It is a great pleasure that the Student Amenities Centre and Gymnasium for both boys and girls under construction, which will be inaugurated soon with many other indoor game facilities. |
We are publishing this Sports Bulletin in its 2nd year with an effort to explore the sports activities for past few years and to track the results, records and statistics of sports activities. Within its shortest span of time it has tried its best to encourage the youths of this southern part of Bengal in all forms of games & sports. In spite of all its efforts, the games & sports in Vidyasagar University are still in its premature stage. We have not been able to organise any major Inter University and National Tournament and produce any National / International Sports personal. The reson is the lack of dedicated manpower (separate Sports department, Coaches, Caretaker, Office Staff, groundsman) and infrastructure facilities, which has recently been started flourishing. But our ardent efforts is our wealth. with cooperation from all, I am sure the day is not far away when the Vidyasagar University will have completely separate Sports Department and all Infrastructure facilities to over-come all these hurdles and establish its Sports division in a commendable position. |
| Our efforts and commitment to sports remain as strong as ever. In the years to come we shall endeavour to strive higher while also maintaining academic excellence. |
