Abstract

This research paper evaluates the PYKKA Master Training Programme conducted by the PYKKA Resource Centre,  Lakshmibai National Institute of Physical Education (LNIPE), Gwalior for the Master Trainers of the North Eastern Region of India. A total of 60 responses were collected from Master Trainers across Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Sikkim, and Tripura. The study used a structured questionnaire of 18 items to assess the training quality, content, delivery, and overall impact. The results show that the training programme was effective and useful for grassroots sports development. Trainers appreciated the content and delivery but also suggested improvements in follow-up support and logistics. The findings highlight the importance of region-specific adjustments for better outcomes.
