As a component of Foundational Domain, this is a compulsory part of the daily routine in school for all students and also offered as an optional subject at senior secondary level to develop learners competencies and confidence to take Physical Education as a career pathway too.
BASKETBALL
The game of basketball is a game of accepting failure; of accepting imperfections; of realizing that the perfect game has never been played, never will be played, or ever could be played.
- Tony Alphonso
Basketball is a game that involves movement of the entire body. The students learn the art of team-spirit and acceptance through this team game. We at DPSG, make sure that students not only play the game, rather understand it through teamwork and perseverance. The sport welcomes integration of the syllabi as students apply their knowledge while understanding the game. Many students have excelled the game and represented our school at various levels.
FOOTBALL
Football trains all your physical abilities. It keeps you both physically and mentally fit. It increases cognitive brain function as concentration is one of the most crucial parts of playing football. It's a physically demanding game that provides an opportunity for students to improve their speed, agility, strength, hand-eye coordination and overall cardiovascular endurance.
Some of the major highlights were:
Saumya bagged the gold medal in Athletics.SWIMMING
Swimming makes you smarter. It improves memory function and thinking skills. It also improves mood, anxiety, and stress, which increases the brains ability to think more efficiently. Students in DPSG are encouraged to build their endurance, muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness through swimming. It also helps them in maintaining a healthy weight, healthy heart and lungs.
These achievements are a result of schools encouragement and focus on Foundational Domains and providing both amenities and opportunities for students to achieve laurels in the areas of interest.

YOGA
Excellence in Action is Yoga
Yoga is the unifying art of transforming dharma into action by seeking mental and spiritual peace. Its innate ability to cease the mental chatter and live in the moment reduces stress and anxiety, showing profound benefits in every sphere of life. It helps students to deal with their stress and bring back some peace of mind. Those who regularly practice yoga not only report lower levels of stress and anxiety and subsequently improved academic performance. The nature of yoga is to shine the light of awareness into the darkest corners of the body.

Volleyball is one of the most interactive games. It is a game of intuition, imagination, improvisation and reciprocity. It involves lot of trust, that is acquired by the students while playing. We make sure that the students integrate their favourite subjects while playing the game and apply their knowledge on the field. This enhances their overall personality and develops a sense of responsibility among them. The students also learn to work in a team, take responsibility and trust their teammates.
SKATING
The school has a specialized skating arena where children master the fun-filled sport under the guidance of experienced coaches. Skating offers quite a few benefits for the mind as well as body.
