The pandemic had a significant impact on the mental health of young people, who were facing uncertainty, isolation, and lack of social interaction. In response, Sarv Samaj Kalyan Samiti organized the Volleyball Khel Pratiyogita on 21st and 22nd April 2021 at the Sri Gayatri Brahmacharya Ashram in Ayodhya.
This tournament provided local youth with an opportunity to get involved in a healthy, competitive activity that boosted their morale and kept them physically active during an otherwise challenging time. Sports play a vital role in promoting teamwork, discipline, and resilience—qualities that are essential for overcoming adversity.
Through this initiative, we not only gave young people the chance to stay active but also created a sense of community and belonging that was especially important during the pandemic.
