About Project

Sports are an integral part of our growth and development. As young kids, we were asked and allowed to play. But as we grow older, for most of us sports loses its value. Mainly due to lack of time. The few who continue playing are the ones who have the potential to make sports their future. However, great things happen when we play sports. Not only does it keep our bodies agile, it also helps sharpen our mind. We think clearly and focus much better. It teaches us about teamwork and even leadership. There are many countries where people like us give a lot of importance to sports in their daily life. But our country isn’t a part of this list. What if you were tasked with bringing a change and making your community participate regularly? A change always starts with a single move in your immediate surroundings. Your opportunity to start a movement begins now. Let’s get started.
