Impact of ‘Sport & Development’
International development organizations have increasingly begun to look to sport as an instrument for reaching development goals. There are now high expectations of sport, with large development potential ascribed to it. Sport is considered to be beneficial in developing social and emotional competencies by nurturing individual traits including self-esteem and communication skills, as well as instilling values such as fair play, teamwork and tolerance. Sport is being applied to address various issues, including: overcoming from any trauma or natural disasters; integrating marginalized groups; creating health awareness; promoting peace and/or conflict transformation; and fostering education and gender equity.
AGSF involvement in Sport & Development
In very minimum words, after a long 10 years hard work our players reached from hot tin-shed to Olympics. We gained a lot of experience in the field of target shooting sport. Even if being in distress we produced lot of international players (including 2-Olympians), Asian games gold medalist & Arjun-Awardee shooter like Saurabh Chaudhary (World Record holder) getting below than basic facilities. Our results proved successful to our unique indigenous techniques of target shooting fusion with yoga and meditation & much more. Now this is the time & our moral duty to give it to the society at wider level. To provide the benefit at wider scale to the society “Aryangateways Sports foundation” is formed as non-profit.
Why? is it that a country of population more than a 330 Cr. not even able to make position in top ten Olympic nations. The answer can be found in the fundamentals: unavailability of facilities to potential talent at grassroots level. Other nations start working on their talent from kid-stage and prepare the champions. We prepare them after being champion when no need is left.
