The construction of the multi-crore sports facilitation centre has been completed at Meppayur Government Vocational higher secondary school. The project will offer multi-gym facilities, indoor game space, jumping pits, and games office space.
Premium training facilities, including a six-lane synthetic track and separate courts for football, volleyball, and basketball, are the other major highlights of the centre. The government has spent ₹6.43 crore for the project.
It was in November 2019 that the foundation stone for the sports facility was laid with funding from the Department of Sports and Youth Affairs. The project was executed by Uralungal Labour Contract Cooperative Society under the supervision of Kerala Industrial and Technical Consultancy Organisation Limited (Kitco).
