Khelo Uttar Pradesh with STAIRS

Stairs Khelo Uttar Pradesh started in 2013. It is an effort to empower the specially-abled youth through sports. Stairs wants to bridge the gap between the differently-abled and other children by providing them equal opportunities to showcase their talent and polish their skills.

There are four sports centres at Chak Chintamani, Pipra Khurd, Harpur Mafee and Pakariyaar Bazar Kushinagar, and a Cricket academy for differently-abled children at Sports Stadium at Ravindra Nagar Dhoos, Padrauna in Kushinagar, UP.

In March 2013, Stairs organised a cricket camp for the specially-abled children at Sports Stadium in Kushinagar, Uttar Pradesh. Over 200 differently-abled children participated in the camp. Some of these players were selected for the Uttar Pradesh Cricket Team for the differently-abled. In April 2013, Stairs organised a Tri-Series Interstate 20-20 cricket tournament for specially-abled youth. Teams from Delhi, Mumbai and Uttar Pradesh participated in the tournament.
