Goa Technical Conduct Committee: When the National Games hosting rights were awarded to Goa, there were mixed reactions from all and sundry about the tiny coastal state’s ability to pull it off without any hiccups.

However, with just under a week left for the closing ceremony of the 37th National Games, Goa has not just pulled off an incredible feat of hosting the biggest ever Games in terms of participation and sporting disciplines.

With over 10,000 athletes participating in 42 disciplines, many of which made their debut in this edition of the National Games, the organisers are of the opinions that this is Goa’s finest moment in its entire sporting history and the state is all set to host many such sporting events in the future.
