Welcome to the MISCA Community, where we all come together!
The Maveli Institute of Sports – Calgary, Alberta (MISCA) is an organization dedicated to promoting sports development among children and youth of the Malayalee community of Calgary & Surrounding Area with an emphasis on cultivating a strong foundation in teamwork, leadership, respect, self-confidence, communication skills, personal development and healthy living. Our vision is to create an environment where children and youth of the Malayalee community can be guided to achieve their life goals in the future. Through the medium of sports, important characteristics required to succeed in academics and future careers will be fostered and developed. This process in turn will inspire young people to give back to their community and continue the process of mentorship and guidance to future generations of Malayalee youth.
Why ‘Maveli’?
Maveli is another name for the legendary King Mahabali of Kerala. This benevolent king is known for his great sacrifice for the people of Kerala and is a well-recognized figure for Malayalees worldwide. It is said that Kerala’s golden era was under King Mahabali’s reign. The people of Kerala enjoyed a sense of camaraderie, harmony and goodwill. Similarly, MISCA aims to promote these same values among participants and therefore, it is a well suited name for this new organization.
