Sangram

Sangram is the annual national-level invitational sports meet of IIT Roorkee held in the month of April that observes participation from various colleges like IITs, NITs, BITS, and other private institutions. It is a sincere effort made by the students and the sports administration to continue our tradition of celebrating sportsmanship and giving an opportunity to aspiring athletes to participate and gear up for the Inter-IIT sports meet in December. Events in the following sports and games are conducted:

  • Athletics
  • Badminton
  • Basketball
  • Chess
  • Cricket
  • Football
  • Hockey
  • Lawn Tennis
  • Squash
  • Table Tennis
  • Volleyball
  • Weight Lifting
  • Taekwondo

Games like chess and taekwondo have been introduced recently, thus expanding the scope of the festival. Each year new equipment and sports gear are ordered and funds are put to use in renovating courts and other sports facilities so that Sangram can take place without a glitch. The success of the meet can be estimated from the fact that even our alumni take time off of their busy lives to sponsor us and participate.
