Activity date: 10 October 2026 · Royal Friends Sports Center, Lalitpur

The Rotaract Club of Patan, in collaboration with the Rotary Club of Patan, held an Inter-School Futsal Competition at Royal Friends Sports Center, Lalitpur.

Boys’ and girls’ teams from our four adopted schools took part: Lubhu Secondary School (Lubhu), Shree Mahendragram Secondary School (Tikathali), Shree Mahendra Adarsh Secondary School (Imadol) and Shree Siddhimangal Secondary School (Sano Gaon). Matches were played as a knockout in separate boys’ and girls’ categories, giving students from different schools a chance to meet and compete through sport. The competition forms part of our work with our adopted schools under Rotary’s TEACH framework.
