Hyderabad - Post Report Question and Answers
Are local sports classes and/or activities available for kids?
There are activities like soccer, badminton, and a few sports at ISH. One challenge has been the traffic and the late night hours for non-school related sports (I think they want to avoid the heat of the day) so we opted out of driving an hour to soccer at 7 pm, playing for an hour, then driving back another hour. Since we made that initial decision, another soccer school has opened up closer to the consulate and our neighbor has enjoyed playing there. You just may need to do your research to find exactly what you're looking for. - Oct 2026
We had a few kids’ classes offered in our apartment complex. Some sent their children to the Little Gym. I had young kids at post, so I am not sure what K-12 activities there are. - Jun 2024
