Heartwarming to see equal focus on girls' teams! Aanya Singh and the other young women are such inspirations. We need more visibility for women's sports in India. Wishing all the teams the very best for the National Finals!

Great initiative, but I hope they are ensuring good facilities and proper coaching in all the cities, especially smaller ones like Prayagraj and Guwahati. Sometimes these programs are very Delhi/Mumbai centric in execution.

15 million youth reached since 2013? That's an incredible number. Basketball has a bright future here. My son participated in a Jr. NBA clinic in Bengaluru last year and loved it. Keep up the good work!

Shout out to the coaches and PE instructors! 15,000 of them trained is no small feat. They are the real heroes building the foundation. Jatin, Maan, Gargi, Priya - make your schools and cities proud at the finals!

Seeing schools from Bhiwani and Greater Noida alongside the usual Delhi names is wonderful. Talent is everywhere in India, it just needs opportunity. Hope the finals are televised or streamed somewhere.
