INTRODUCTION

The Master Plan of Delhi-2001 had laid emphasis on the development of sports facilities for all age groups within easy reach of all the sections of society. Hence DDA Sports has developed various sports complexes, mutigyms, play-fields, etc., all over Delhi.


OBJECTIVES

The objectives of DDA Sports Complexes are :-

  • To provide recreational and healthy environment to the citizens of Delhi.
  • To take sports to those sections of the society which cannot afford membership of prestigious clubs and those who would like to associate with ‘clubs’ totally devoted to sports.
  • To promote various sports not easily accessible to the general public.
  • To ensure mass participation in sports activities and thereby the spirit of mutual help and goodwill among citizens of Delhi in general and the members of the complexes in particular.

SPORTS FACILITIES

DDA Sports has a number of Sports Complexes, Multigyms, Swimming Pools and Golf Courses. These Sports Complexes are managed by Secretaries who are ex-service officers and retired government servants.


MEMBERSHIP

The sports complexes are membership oriented, excluding the new facilities built during the Commonwealth Games i.e., DDA Sports Squash & Badminton Stadium and Common Wealth Games Village Sports Complex, which are purely on pay and play basis. Various types of membership are available to the public. Public may also avail facilities on “pay and play” basis. The maintenance of the complexes is essentially from member’s monthly subscription / pay and play fees and allied charges received from licensing out of snack bars, pro shops, etc. Rules and Regulations for the Sports Complexes have been formulated and membership is approved by a Screening Committee nominated for each complex.
