The Sports and Physical Activity Centre (SAPA Centre) is a systems-change institution focused on applied research, ecosystem diagnostics, policy-to-action pathways, measurement, and implementation support for India's growing sports and physical activity (SAPA) ecosystem.
Incubated at the Sports and Society Accelerator in 2022, the SAPA Centre operates as a dedicated vertical within GoSports Foundation. Within the GoSports Foundation’s growing institutional framework, the SAPA Centre serves as a central interface for research, standards, measurement, and systems support. It works to deepen engagement with governments, institutions, funders, implementation partners, and ecosystem actors to shape priorities, inform policy processes, and strengthen delivery systems.
We envision an India where movement, play, and sport are integral to everyday life, enabling universal participation and pathways to excellence, and advancing well-being, capability, and national development.
