The UT Administration is likely to sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Panjab University for sharing usage of sports infrastructure, said UT Adviser Dharam Pal. During his recent visit to the campus, the Adviser and Panjab University authorities verbally agreed to sign the MoU.

“An MoU can be signed with PU for sharing their sports infrastructure and using their land for introducing various health services on their campuses (Sector 14 and Sector 25). Discussions took place between officials, and things can be worked out in that manner,” said Pal.

Sources said the Directorate of Sports, Panjab University, and the UT Sports Department, besides using fields for conducting championships, may introduce coaching-camps for all players, exchange of coaches and other services. “The Panjab University officials will prepare a draft and will submit it for consideration to the UT Administration. The infrastructure can be developed and other services can be exchanged,” said PU officials.

Meanwhile, the UT Sports Department is already managing many sports complexes, which were initially made for the UT Education Department. “The administration should streamline induction of coaches and purchasing of equipment before taking over assignments. This MoU will help them settle trainees of state-run academies, who usually allege poor treatment by the administration once they pass out from there. They can be retained in colleges affiliated with PU,” said an official.
