Thiru. N.Srinivasan affectionately called 'Choo Vathiyar' was the founder of Rajalakshmi Sports Club.

RAJALAKSHMI SPORS CLUB (RSC) is considered as one of the topnotch Basket Ball clubs in Coimbatore for the past seven decades. Since 1950, the RSC’s Basket Ball team has stood as the best among the 30 plus sports clubs functioning in Coimbatore district by producing players representing for the District, State, National and International level. The sports club with 75 years of sustained experience and excellence is a spot-on-passage for any aspiring basket ball player and no wonder that the club rejuvenates itself year after year through various events.  

The club with such a long standing, was initiated and molded over the years with fine thoughts and matching contributions from the Coaches-par-excellence and Professional Players. Being in the community with a value of a family, the RSC walks with every player from the basic grass root level to the professional level. The day-to-day training sessions are well thought out, structured and delivered to develop players with excellent standards of their own and every outgoing player is a brand ambassador of RSC. The attitude here is not ‘just-be-a’ player but ‘be-the-best’ player.

It’s a Great Honor to mention Mr. Navakodi an All India Superstar from the basket ball courts of RSC. He was an outstanding player, who went on to represent the Indian Basket Ball Team. Starting from 1966 to 1975 he has shown us what is dedication and passion to this sport. History has it, that his 3 point shooter made all the difference for the team to make that remarkable achievement at the highest level possible. He was just not an excellent player, but a role model embodying kindness and humanity and serves as an inspiration to almost all the players in this sport. He was a great human being and words will not be sufficient to explain the sacrifices he made for the development of RSC

In order to honor the Great Legend on his first anniversary and to produce and motivate players from grass root level for this great sport, the RSC is conducting a District Level Basket Ball Tournament in the name of “Mr. Navakodi Memorial Trophy” for school boys under various categories.
