In the event that suitable candidates with the required sports achievements are not available for Level-5 posts as notified, candidates may also be considered in lower Group C categories to the extent of the notified posts, subject to overall suitability in the discipline.
- The venue and date of Trials and Interview/Certificate Verification will be intimated to eligible candidates; candidates are advised to check the CLW official website regularly. Shortlisted eligible candidates will be called for:

There is no relaxation or reservation of any kind for any community - selection is purely merit-based on the performances described above.
