Since initiation and training of the students the gymnastics team has been winning championships, trophies for best gymnasts, and medals for vault and floor exercises. The table tennis team has been runner-up in almost all the championships in 2019.
In 2021, the girls of the gymnastics team and the table tennis team have won championships in the last two months. The Kiran Foundation championship for gymnastics was cleaned swept by the girls by winning the best gymnast girl, first position horse, second position floor, and won the championship third time in a row. The boys are still in training and participated in the event.
The Whales Sports Festival held from 27th January 2020 till 2nd February 2020 proved to be a great opportunity for students to experience camaraderie, teamwork & leadership besides showcasing their athletic talent. The boys and girls table tennis team participated where the girl's team won the runner-up and the championship.
These amazing children continue to make the community and Imkaan proud of their achievements. Imkaan will continue to add new children to the roster and train the current team to be part of national teams.
