A healthy mind resides in a healthy body. IIIT-Allahabad provides an excellent physical activities infrastructure for its residents to ensure that academic development is duly supplemented by sufficient physical development as well.

A well maintained football ground – complete with spectator stands serves as the principal venue for most of the sports events organized by “Spirit” – the sports club of IIIT-Allahabad. A duly marked athletic track circumscribing the ground serves to provide for a safe track for not only the athletic events – but the early morning joggers as well.

Aquatic sports are catered to by a 25*12m swimming pool that is maintained to strict hygiene standards.

The institute also provides flood lit basketball, tennis and squash courts to ensure that students have sufficient venues to engage in games of their choice. To further complement these venues, the air-conditioned Student Activity Center (SAC) also houses a table tennis facility along with a billiards room for those interested in indoor activities..
