Located on a leveled plateau overlooking the town, this facility is the heart of physical education and community gatherings in Noklak. The complex features a large multi-purpose field primarily used for football, which is a passion among the Naga people. Surrounding the field are concrete stands that can accommodate thousands of spectators during major tournaments.
