New Delhi, 22 December 2022: Two budding women cricketers from Push Sports Academy has been chosen to represent the respective states of Jammu and Kashmir and Uttar Pradesh. Shubhi Sharma & Ayati Sadotra will be representing the Under 19 Uttar Pradesh team and the Under 15 Jammu & Kashmir teams, respectively.
Ayati has been chosen as the captain of the J&K team. The announcements came soon after two cricketers were chosen for the Under 19 Delhi teams last month. Puru Singh, Founder of Push Sports and former Delhi State Player, said, “This is really a feather in the cap for Push Sports.
We can proudly say that our coaching, advisory, and treatment of players are perfectly gender-neutral, and we are on the right path of guiding our students to attain their dreams through Sports. We have always targeted to be the best, but this is the first time when the performance of our students has really proven our credentials.”
‘Push Sports,’ the start-up focusing on ‘Sports Education’ with an aim to catalyze fitness through mind and body, has been working with budding women cricketers to bring in the much-needed gender parity in the arena of sports and cricket.
As Puru reiterated, “Push Sports essentially stands for Passionate Underdog Sports House, and this announcement will give a firm push to the young girl athletes that are training with us. Societal pressure from family for higher studies or otherwise force them off the circuit many times, even though they are committed to the game. We sincerely hope these results will help others also to follow their passion.”
“It is a celebration of success at the grassroot level. There are so many constraints for a sports career itself and, further to it, the gender disparity within society. We are happy to showcase success and also build on the same. Push Sports intends to support the individual girls themselves who are challenging their own boundaries all the way to success,” he added.
Incidentally, the India Cricket scene is expected to change, especially from a Women’s cricket perspective. With IPL about to announce a women’s chapter and the Under19 world cup for women already underway, India should be ready with talents. The entire ecosystem in sports, led by Cricket, is maturing towards gender parity which women’s athletics has never seen before.
Push Sports is determined to establish a more equitable gender balance and increased levels of female engagement across all aspects of the sport. Even from a strategic point of view, this is one of the best times for scouting women’s talent at the grassroot level and nurturing them in cricket.
Founded in 2019, Push sports is a Delhi based Sports Education & Infrastructure start-up with a mission to catalyze fitness through sports especially focusing on school-going children in a bid to minimize screen time, provide opportunities for physical activity and balanced diet so as to minimize health issues among children in a constructive manner.
