Who can apply: age, education and sports record

You need Class 10 or an equivalent pass from a recognised board and must be 18 to 23 years old on 1 November 2026. Sportspersons in the UR, EWS and OBC categories get 5 extra years, OBC (NCL) candidates 8 and SC/ST candidates 10. Your sports record must fall between 1 January 2024 and 1 November 2026: participation or a medal in an international event cleared by the Sports Ministry, or a medal or place up to third at the National Games, Senior or Junior National Championships, Inter-University or Khelo India University Games, or Khelo India Youth or Winter Games. Only the Class 10 or Class 12 certificate is accepted as proof of age.

Sports marks and merit

Marks come from your one highest achievement. An Olympic gold earns 100 marks, an Asian Games gold 85 and a Commonwealth Games gold 80, while a National Games or Senior National Championship gold earns 30, a Junior National gold 25, an Inter-University gold 20 and a Khelo India Youth Games gold 15. Participation earns marks only at international level. Everyone needs at least 10 marks. Ties go to the better national record, then to the younger candidate.

Physical standards and medical

Men need a height of 170 cm and a chest of 80 cm with 5 cm expansion; women need 157 cm. Relaxed heights apply, for example 162.5 cm and 150 cm for ST candidates and 165 cm and 155 cm for Garhwalis, Kumaonis, Dogras, Marathas and candidates from Assam, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh. Distant vision must be 6/6 and 6/9 without glasses, and colour blindness, knock-knees, flat feet, varicose veins or squint disqualify you.

The post is at Pay Level-3, ₹21,700 to ₹69,100, with dearness allowance, ration money, washing allowance, free uniform, accommodation or HRA and medical facilities. Male UR, OBC and EWS candidates pay a ₹100 fee online; women, SC and ST are exempt.
