Social and sporting club in the Indian subcontinent
Gymkhana ( jim-KAH-nə; Hindi: जिमख़ाना; Urdu: جِم خانہ; Sindhi: جمخانه; Assamese: জিমখানা; Bengali: জিমখানা) is a British India term which originally referred to a place of assembly. The meaning then altered to denote a place where skill-based contests were held. "Gymkhana" is an Anglo-Indian expression, which is derived from the Persian word "Jamat-khana". Most gymkhanas have a Gymkhana Club associated with them, a term coined during the British Raj for gentlemen's club. More generally, gymkhana refers to a social and sporting club in the Indian subcontinent, and in other Asian countries including Malaysia, Thailand, Burma, and Singapore, as well as in East Africa.
