    Hi

    I am not sure but as far as i know there is no exemption is given to the sport cota in the UPSC exams.

    The UPSC exams are only based upon the knowledge of your work.

    There is no cota for the sport students in the Exams of UPSC.

    The UPSC exams are based only upon the subjective criteria.

    you can get some exemtion in the job after clearing the UPSC exam.

    For more info:-http://www.upsc.gov.in

    sports persons does not get any relaxation in the competitive exams conducted by UPSC like civil service exam, Engineering service exam , combined defense service exam etc. In those exams only physically challenged candidates, ex service men and community wise age relaxation is applicable. In exams like Indian Engineering service exam, there is relaxation for certain central govt. employees. But there is no exemption/relaxation for sports persons
    In direct recruitment posts there are certain relaxations for sports persons. In direct recruitment by UPSC- meritorious sports persons will get age relaxation of 5 years in upper age limit(in case of general category)
    for OBC- 8 years
    for SC/sT- 10 years
    This age relaxtion is applicable only for those sports persons
    1) who represent India in an International competition in one of the recognised games or sports
    2) who represented a state in NAtional competition
    For claiming this age relaxation, they have to submit a certificate from the competent authority in the prescribed proforma
