Noida Stadium Sector 21A Guide 2026: Sports, Fees, Swimming Pool Status & How to Reach

Noida Stadium in Sector 21A is the city’s main public sports complex, owned by Noida Authority and home to a cricket ground, a 4,000-seat indoor stadium, tennis courts, a skating rink, a shooting range and a golf driving range. If you are searching for the Noida Stadium Sector 21A swimming pool, note that we could not confirm a regularly operating public pool here as of September 2026, so this guide also points you to verified alternatives. Below you will find what each facility offers, reported fees, timings and how to reach the complex by metro.

What Is Inside the Noida Stadium Complex?

The Sector 21A complex is not a single building. It is a large campus with an outdoor cricket stadium, an indoor multi-sport hall, open courts and practice areas. Noida Authority’s sports wing manages the campus, while several individual sports are handed to district associations or licensed academies that run coaching batches and court bookings.

Noida Cricket Stadium

The cricket ground is the most visible part of the complex. It hosts local, school, corporate and league tournaments, and Uttar Pradesh cricket teams have used it. Plans to upgrade it into an international venue were announced several years ago, but for now it mainly serves domestic and private events. In April 2021, Noida Authority said it was looking for a private agency to run the stadium on a 15-year lease because it had been under-used. Do not confuse it with the Shaheed Vijay Singh Pathik Sports Complex in Greater Noida, which is a separate stadium run by Greater Noida Authority.

Indoor Stadium

The indoor stadium was inaugurated by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath through video conference in January 2021, as reported by Hindustan Times. It covers about 8,040 square metres, seats roughly 4,000 people and was built for about ₹101 crore. It has facilities for:

• Badminton and table tennis
• Basketball, volleyball and handball
• Gymnastics
• Judo, wrestling, boxing and taekwondo
• Weightlifting

A shooting range with about 800 seats, designed for 10 m pistol and 25/50 m rifle practice, was part of the same project.

Outdoor Sports

Outside the halls you will find lawn tennis courts, football and basketball areas, an archery range, a skating rink, a jogging track and a golf driving range. Squash, chess, billiards and futsal have also been listed among the indoor activities by local guides.

Noida Stadium Sector 21A Swimming Pool: What We Could Verify

Many people search for a swimming pool at Noida Stadium. Here is the honest picture as of September 2026:

• We could not find an official Noida Authority notice or recent news report confirming a public swimming pool operating at the Sector 21A complex, or its current fees.
• News24 reported that Noida Authority proposed an international-standard pool at the stadium, on vacant land behind the golf range. The plan had a 50 m x 25 m main pool, a 10 m diving platform and a practice pool, to be built on a public-private partnership (PPP) model. We found no confirmation that it has been built.
• In July 2026, Millennium Post reported that Noida Authority had re-tendered a new ₹145 crore sports complex on about 26.65 acres in Sector 123. Its ₹71 crore first phase includes a swimming pool, synthetic track and football ground. The same report said the Sector 21A stadium was running at heavy capacity.

If you need a pool this season, look at the options below and confirm directly with the facility before you pay.

Option	Where	What was reported
Shaheed Vijay Singh Pathik Sports Complex	Greater Noida	Amar Ujala (August 2026) reported that Greater Noida Authority opened swimming, tennis, badminton and other sports at government rates: about ₹210 a year for under-18s, and ₹300 for the first month then ₹200 a month for adults. Rates apply only to sports without a private agency.
Private academies and clubs	Sectors 24, 50, 51, 93 and others	Fees vary widely. Registered pools must follow district safety rules, including lifeguards and female coaches.
Upcoming Sector 123 complex	Noida	Pool planned in phase 1, but tendering was still under way in July 2026.

Reported Fees and Timings (as of September 2026)

Noida Stadium does not publish one fee chart online. Each sport sets its own monthly coaching fee or court charge. The figures below come from a local guide published in July 2024 and from the Hudle booking page, so treat them as rough ranges. Fees and timings can change at any time. Confirm at the stadium office or with the coach before paying.

Sport	Reported charge	Typical batch timing
Badminton (court booking)	About ₹400–500 per hour per court	Roughly 6 AM–10 PM
Badminton coaching	About ₹2,500–5,000 per month	Morning and evening batches

Badminton courts are also listed on the Hudle app under the Noida District Badminton Association, with four courts and prices listed from about ₹500 per hour. Shooting is usually charged per session or monthly, so ask at the range.

How to Join a Sport at Noida Stadium

1. Visit in the morning or early evening. Coaches and office staff are easiest to find during batch hours.
2. Ask which agency runs your sport. Fees and rules differ between sports run by Noida Authority and those run by associations or private academies.
3. Carry ID and photos. Most coaching programmes ask for an Aadhaar or school ID, two passport photos and, for children, a parent’s contact details.
4. Take a trial session if one is offered, especially for skating, tennis and golf where kit costs add up.
5. Get a receipt for every payment. It shows which body collected the fee and helps if you later need a refund or a transfer to another batch.

How to Reach Noida Stadium

The complex sits in Sector 21A near the Noida Golf Course, between Sector 18 and Sector 25. There is no metro station at the gate. The closest Blue Line stations are Noida City Centre (about 2.2 km), Noida Sector 34 (about 2.4 km) and Golf Course (about 2.6 km). From any of them, take an e-rickshaw, auto or cab. For fares and first/last train times, check the DMRC website. If you are coming from Greater Noida, the Aqua Line connects to the Blue Line at Noida Sector 52.

By car, the complex is a short drive from the DND Flyway, Sector 18 and the Noida–Greater Noida Expressway. Parking is inside the campus on normal days. When there is a match, concert or mela it fills up fast, and paid parking may apply.

Events and Melas at the Stadium Ground

Apart from sport, the stadium grounds sometimes host fairs, carnivals, concerts and festival melas. Entry to these events is set by the organiser, not by the stadium, and can range from free to a ticketed pass. Timings are usually in the evening. Check the organiser’s page for the date, entry fee and parking plan. Expect heavy traffic on the roads around Sector 21A on event evenings, so leave extra time.

Tips and Mistakes to Avoid

• Do not rely on old fee lists. Agencies change fees when contracts are renewed. Always confirm the current rate on the spot.
• Do not assume the pool is open. Several online listings still mention swimming at Noida Stadium. Call or visit before you buy swimwear or a membership.
• Beat the heat. From April to June, outdoor batches are best in early mornings. Carry water and a cap.
• Check the air quality in winter. From November to January, GRAP curbs can move outdoor activities indoors or cancel them for a few days. Keep an eye on the AQI before an outdoor session.
• Carry your own kit (racquet, shuttles, shoes) for court bookings. Rentals are limited.
• Pick batches near the metro times if your child travels alone, since the last leg from the metro is by road.

Other Places for Active Weekends in Noida

If you only want space to walk, jog or play informally, you do not need a stadium membership. Noida has many large public parks. Our list of the best parks in Noida covers the green spaces with walking tracks. Ved Van Park in Sector 78 combines a long walking circuit with Vedic-themed gardens. For families planning a day out, see things to do in Noida with kids.

Noida Stadium in Sector 21A is still the city’s busiest place to learn a sport, from badminton and skating to shooting and golf, often at lower prices than private clubs. Go in person, check who runs the sport you want, and confirm the fee and batch time before you pay. If swimming is your priority, the Greater Noida government complex and the upcoming Sector 123 facility are the ones to watch.
