the list is ever ending......
I sometimes wonder whether our government or the competent authorities have done the required homework for our sports personnel to perform at the international level. .The laurels which our country gets at the international sports meets is unquestionably won mostly by the players who without taking the help from the govt. seeks either corporate sponsors or personal finances. This uncovers the real face of indian sports ....... .
For saying our country has won 3 medals at the olympics , but actually the credit is not of sports authorities, the credit goes to the players & their luck also b'coz they have excelled inspite of all the odds.

Quite true. I think our government doesnt really concentrate on sports other than cricket. u can look at the finances . the funding for cricket is alone the sum of the fundings for all other sports.
ReplyDeletejust look at the state of hockey (our national game ). India was world champion in hockey winning a no. of olympic gold medals . but then the grass was replaced by turf and the lack of turf in india resulted in lack of practice for our players.
this blog is quite a good attempt to open the eyes of not only people like us but also of people who matter.
