    Shree Mavli Mandal is an organization established in the year 1925, by Late Shri Shankarrao Yadav and Late Shri Shankarrao Bhoir, who were extreme sports lovers. They took immense interest and established this organization for promotion of sports, gymnasium and cultural activities. The organization is duly registered under the Public Trust Act (Registration No. A/39). In the year 1947, a vacant raw plot was purchased and activities such as gymnastics and other sports were started. The prime location of the plot was of greatest advantage, as it was convenient to youngsters, who were then attracted towards the activities of the organization. There was no looking back once they joined in, as they got permanently attached here and devoted their best for the organization. In the same year the organization started its own gymnasium. Further, in the year 1952, the organization started organizing State Level Kabaddi Competition. By the year 1960, the organization felt necessary to have a separate office and a place for indoor activities. Hence, a building was constructed which includes its administrative office, a modern equipped gymnasium and a cultural hall. The level of ground was raised by 3 feet's to permanently avoid the disturbance in monsoon season. The ground has a 200 meters track, surrounded by fencing wall and trees. The organization imparts basic training of Kabaddi, Kho-Kho, (traditional National sports), atheletics, football, volleyball and hockey. The training is available at nominal fees. "Life Membership" is allotted to those youths who have been actively involved in all the organization activities and are giving the maximum efforts for achieving the goals set up by the organization for a period of alteast 10 years after joining the institution.
