Basketball is our prime sport — and has been for decades

Since 1990 it has hosted the Hansraj Prabhakar Memorial Invitational Basketball Tournament, drawing teams from reputed schools across the Delhi region in four categories — Senior Boys, Senior Girls, Mini Boys (under 13) and Mini Girls (under 13). Trophies and individual prizes are awarded, with special recognition for the highest scorers and best players.
