What is National Sports Day?

India's National Sports Day honours the birthday of hockey legend Major Dhyan Chand, winner of three Olympic golds. It celebrates the joy of playing and the power of sport to build health, discipline and pride — reminding everyone that showing up and giving your all is what counts.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
