The Greenwood Sports System
The school's athletics programme, guided by NIS-certified coaches, begins talent identification at the primary school level. Students showing promise are enrolled in the Early Athlete Development Programme (EADP) and receive structured coaching alongside their academic schedule.
The school's world-class 400-metre synthetic track, professional coaching staff, sports science support, and nutrition programme have been central to this sustained success. Three of our current athletes are on the radar of the Kerala State Athletics Association for national-level participation.
