National Sports Day - Library Special Online Exhibition

 National Sports Day is celebrated in India every year on 29th August to honor the legendary hockey player Major Dhyan Chand, whose birthday falls on this day. Known as the “Hockey Wizard,” Major Dhyan Chand brought great pride to India by winning three Olympic gold medals in hockey (1928, 1932, and 1936).

This National Sports Day, our library brings you a special online exhibit of books dedicated to the legends who turned passion, discipline, and determination into glory. From hockey wizard Major Dhyan Chand to cricketing icons, Olympic champions, and inspiring athletes from across the world – these biographies and life stories are more than just records of victories.

They reveal the hard work, resilience, and never-give-up spirit that every student can learn from. Reading about sports personalities is not only exciting but also motivates us to set goals, stay fit, and believe in ourselves.
