This unique and extraordinary championship is truly inspiring. It will enable and encourage more such sporting events and lead to identify future talents and sustainable sports movement in J&K UT.

Sports as soft power have an important role in bringing regions, nations and diverse cultures together. As a social enterprise, sports give paramount importance to equality, economic development that benefits entire community.

My mantra for the budding sportspersons is to stop doubting yourself and go after what you really want in life with complete dedication. With firm determination, hard work and faith, players can chart their own future: LG Sinha
