Day 1 Results & What to Expect
Two teams made strong opening statements on Day 1 — Shyama Prasad Mukherji College for Women and Indira Gandhi Institute of Physical Education & Sports Sciences (IGIPESS) both registered victories in their respective matches, combining tactical discipline, agility, and cohesive teamwork to open their campaigns convincingly.
The 30 participating institutions span the breadth of Delhi University’s colleges, from Daulat Ram College and Kamla Nehru College to Hans Raj College, Jesus & Mary College, and Kirori Mal College — a strong reflection of how deeply the sport has penetrated women’s collegiate athletics in the capital.
With group toppers already established and knockout matches ahead through February 28, the tournament is set to intensify significantly. Kho Kho’s combination of explosive sprinting, sharp tactical chasing, and team communication makes it one of the most physically demanding and exciting indigenous sports at the collegiate level — and this tournament is exactly the kind of platform that produces the next generation of national-level players.
