As published on the Khelo India Accredited Academies (official dashboard), checked 2026-09-04. This list publishes no address, contact, fee or age range for any academy, so none is shown here.

Operational

Trainees on the official list: 30 male, 19 female.

Status and counts as published in Khelo India — List of KISCEs (PDF).

Sourcing caveat: The Khelo India accreditation lines on this page were matched to this campus by venue: the list carries “Chandigarh Football Academy, Sports Complex Hockey Stadium (Boys)” and “Chandigarh Hockey Academy, Punjab (Boys)”, and the Chandigarh sports department publishes residential football and hockey academies at this Sector 42 hockey-stadium campus. The list itself publishes no address, so this match is on names and venue, not on a published address.

Fees

No fee applies.

This is a government-funded centre. Selected athletes are not charged a training fee — boarding, lodging, coaching, diet and sports-science support are provided by the scheme. No fee schedule is published because none applies.

Getting in, not paying, is the barrier here: see the admission process below.

No official source states an age eligibility range for this academy. Ask the academy directly: its official website (https://kheloindia.gov.in).

Admission process

  1. You cannot submit an open application. Places are filled by induction decided by the state centre together with SAI.
  2. The Khelo India list states it verbatim: “Induction of athletes in various KISCEs is under process. Indiution/weeding out of athletes is round-the-year activity for all KISCEs.” (spelling as printed in the PDF.)
  3. No application channel, trial date, fee or contact is published for any KISCE — so we publish none.
