About the CISCE and SGFI Nationals

Both the CISCE National Games and the SGFI National Championships represent the pinnacle of school-level athletics in India. The CISCE Games bring together the finest athletes from thousands of affiliated schools nationwide through rigorous zonal and regional qualifiers. Progression from CISCE to the SGFI Nationals represents the ultimate benchmark in school sports, pitting top qualifiers against premier athletes from state education boards, CBSE and national sports academies under the aegis of the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports.

Sustaining elite-level competition alongside academic rigor requires extensive external coaching, travel and rigorous training regimes. Trio World School works closely with student-athletes and their families, ensuring academic accommodations and guidance so young champions can pursue intensive external athletic development without compromising their scholastic goals.
