Children from remote areas are getting a big platform
In a tribal and remote district like Bijapur, such a sports camp can prove to be a life-changing opportunity for many children. Children who previously did not have access to sports resources are now practicing under the supervision of trained coaches. Players who perform better in the camp will later be given admission in the Sports Academy and given special training. With this, talented children will get an opportunity to reach the state and national level.
Camp developing self-confidence and positive thinking
Sports experts believe that such camps develop self-confidence, leadership abilities and a sense of healthy competition in children. This event of Bijapur is not only teaching sports to the children, but is also inspiring them to live a disciplined life and dream big. In the times to come, this initiative of the local administration can play an important role in providing new sports talents to the district as well as in giving positive direction to the youth.
