PALASO 2018 marks the beginning of a new catalyst event, which will mark the togetherness and sportsmanship of Palava at different dimensions.

While quilting different ideas came this grand idea of creating Mini Olympics where 16 sports will be played together within a span of 9 days to facilitate the residents to enjoy the beginning of year with an annual sports event which will be filled with professional sports, fun, food, games, activity sports, senior's participation, dance, music and lots more to keep everyone engaged in one or the other activity during the week.

Palaso will be an annual event to which residents will look forward to every year and its achievements and awards will add stars to your Wall of fame.

The idea originated by Sports council and in support with PCMA to bring something of this scale for the residents and where every small thing will be kept into consideration that brings joys and happiness to the residents of Palava.

Palava has given everything to the residents with scope to improve and re-define itself as the best organization, working for the betterment of residents. Initiating the formation of different resident councils was one such step and the brains of council members came up with this property called Palaso.

Palaso will redefine the sports played and learnt in Palava. We are expecting really good talent to showcase through this platform.
Palaso Sportsman of the year & Palaso Sportsperson of each sport will be the highlight of the event. Sports Council will have its eye on real talent who will be guided to go the next level, in co-ordination with our prevailing academies.

Put your right gears and be prepared to participate in the Grand extravaganza of Palava. Palaso 2018- Let The Games Begin.

Mark the dates, as a long weekend planner from Jan 20th Saturday to Jan 28th Sunday, 2018.
