Purpose & programme

What is TISM?

For five consecutive years, TISM has brought our global community together. What began as a sporting tradition has grown into a full-scale international event — a platform where competition, commerce, and fellowship share equal standing.

On the field, box cricket and volleyball anchor the tournament, supported by a growing roster of disciplines. Every fixture runs to published standards, with qualified officials and a code of fair play that participants and spectators rely on.

Off the field, TISM serves as a business forum. Dedicated sessions, exhibition spaces, and curated introductions connect entrepreneurs, professionals, and emerging talent across cities and markets.

Competition

Box cricket and volleyball at the centre, with structured fixtures, qualified officials, and standards of fair play.

Commerce

Sessions, exhibitions, and introductions that turn match week into lasting opportunity.

Community

Five years of families, friendships, and shared memory — the reason every Jamiat returns.

Global participation

22 Jamiats, one gathering

TISM unites 22 Jamiats from across regions and countries — among the widest community gatherings of its kind. Each arrives with players, officials, organisers, and supporters.

Every delegation is formally registered, assigned a coordinator, and integrated into a single tournament calendar. Travel, fixtures, meals, and accommodation are planned as one operation — not twenty-two separate ones. The result is a schedule that runs on time and a guest experience that feels consistent, wherever you have travelled from.

The benefit endures long after the closing ceremony: friendships across cities, shared learning between organising teams, and relationships that continue throughout the year.

  • Registered delegations with named coordinators
  • One unified fixture and travel calendar
  • Lasting connections between participating Jamiats

Sport & venues

Built for competition at scale

TISM's competition carries the rigour established over five editions: box cricket and volleyball as anchor disciplines, with structured fixtures, qualified officials, and published rules every participant commits to.

Ahmedabad's venues match that standard. The city is home to the world's largest cricket stadium, with dedicated turf grounds and indoor halls — all within a compact, well-connected layout, so every fixture from group stage to final remains within easy reach.

Guest experience

Hospitality, managed end to end

Accommodation is arranged by the organising committee: vetted hotels near venues, room allocation by delegation, and on-site help desks for check-in, transport, and dining — so guests can focus entirely on the event.

Ahmedabad is a city accustomed to hosting. Its hotel inventory, guest houses, and culinary tradition give every delegation room to settle — and a team with five editions of TISM experience knows how to put that capacity to work.

Vetted accommodation

Committee-arranged stays near venues, inspected in advance.

Delegation planning

Room allocation, check-in, and dining on a single calendar.

Why Ahmedabad

A city prepared to host

Capability here is not aspiration — it is established practice. Six reasons Ahmedabad is the natural home for TISM-7.

01

India's first UNESCO Heritage City

Inscribed as the nation's first World Heritage City — civic pride, restored heritage, and a culture of welcoming guests.

02

Global connectivity

International airport, national rail hub, and expanding expressway network — every Jamiat's city within hours.

03

Premier venues

Home to the world's largest cricket stadium — 132,000 seats — with turf grounds and indoor halls for every discipline.

04

A city that hosts

Trade fairs, festivals, and conventions run year-round. Large gatherings are not an experiment here; they are the routine.

05

Hotel capacity

A deep, vetted inventory of hotels and guest houses, most within a short ride of the venues and transport hubs.

06

The ideal season

Warm, dry winters from November to February give TISM an ideal sporting window — day after day of clear skies.

Our commitment

Five editions. One proven team.

This bid is backed by the committee that has delivered TISM for five consecutive editions — named coordinators, published rules, vetted hotels, and one unified calendar. We invite you to judge us by the record we bring.
