Schools will register students on the online portal. Those schools intending to participate in CBSE sports events should visit the CBSE website and complete the following 3 steps
Schools have the option to enroll their students online by completing the form available on the official website.
Select the ‘Registration/Apply to Participate’ option.
A unique identification number (UID) will be generated for each student.
This registration process is required only once, and the same UID will remain in effect for all subsequent years while the student is enrolled in CBSE schools.
Upon completing the student registration, it is essential to click on ‘Apply to Participate’ to enroll the student in any game.
This action is a prerequisite for participation in CBSE games.
If the registration is finalised without completing this step (Apply to Participate), the student or team will be ineligible to take part.
Upon the completion of the aforementioned steps, namely 'Register Student' and 'Apply to Participate', the participating schools are required to send an email to the organizing schools to confirm their participation. This confirmation should be sent at least one week before the event to allow the organising schools to make the necessary arrangements.
CBSE sports registrations submitted after the specified deadline will be subject to a late fee. The fee structure is as follows:
A charge of Rs. 500/- per student will be applied for submissions made within 7 days of the deadline, i.e., from June 17 to June 23, 2025.
The fee will rise to Rs. 1000/—per student for submissions made between June 24 and June 30, 2025, days after the deadline.
A participant must be under the ages of 11, 14, 17, and 19 as of December 31, 2025. Therefore, for the 2025-25 season, the age requirements will be established as follows:
Under 11 years: Individuals born on or after January 1, 2014
Under 14 years: Individuals born on or after January 1, 2011
Under 17 years: Individuals born on or after January 1, 2008

Participants who secure the first and second positions in all individual sports events, as well as only the winners (gold medalists) in all team games at the Cluster and Zonal levels, will qualify for the CBSE Nationals in each category and age group. However, for specific sports such as Chess (the top two teams), Shooting (the top two teams and the top five individuals), and Yogasana (the top two teams and the top five individuals), different criteria apply.
All participants will receive Participation Certificates. Winners will be awarded Merit Certificates and Medals. These certificates will be made available in a digital format (PDF) online.
For Cluster/Zonal Level Certificates: The organising schools will record attendance and upload results on the CBSE Sports Portal. Subsequently, participating schools will have the opportunity to download the Cluster/Zonal Participation Certificates and Merit Certificates from the CBSE Sports Portal.
For National Level Certificates: Following the attendance marking and results uploading by the Cluster/Zonal organising schools, the National Organizing schools will also mark attendance and upload results to facilitate the generation of National Participation Certificates and Merit Certificates.
Other than sports activities, the board also provides psychological counseling before exams and after results.

On Question asked by student community
Hello,
Since you have passed 10th and 12th from Delhi and your residency is Delhi, but your domicile is UP, here’s how NEET counselling works:
1. Counselling Eligibility: For UP NEET counselling, your UP domicile makes you eligible, regardless of where your schooling was. You can participate in UP state counselling according to your NEET rank.
2. Delhi Counselling: For Delhi state quota, usually 10th/12th + residency matters. Since your school and residency are in Delhi, you might also be eligible for Delhi state quota, but it depends on specific state rules.
So, having a Delhi Aadhaar will not automatically reject you in UP counselling as long as you have a UP domicile certificate.
Hope you understand.

Hello,
Sorry, but JoSAA does not accept marks from two different boards for the same qualification during counselling. However, you can use your NIOS marks to meet the JEE Main/Advanced eligibility criteria if they are better than your CBSE marks. You can use your NIOS marks for the eligibility check, but when presenting your documents, you may be required to present both marksheets and the one with the higher marks for each subject will be considered.
I hope it will clear your query!!
