💬 Message from the Chairman – Akash Bhatnagar
“India is a land full of untapped talent. Every village, every town has young champions waiting for the right platform. I founded the Sports Army Foundation to give these future Olympians the chance they truly deserve.”
I am Akash Bhatnagar, a passionate sportsperson turned changemaker, and currently the Chairman of the Sports Army Foundation. My sports journey started from the grassroots and took me across prestigious leagues and tournaments such as Cluster, Regional, District, State, School Nationals, Open Nationals, Delhi Division A League, Premier League India (PLI), Indian League U18, and the Subroto Cup. I was also honored to be selected for the U17 FIFA Camp.
Beyond the field, I hold 5 Indian records and 3 Asian records in Football Juggling, and have been titled as a Grandmaster by the Asia Book of Records.
But my proudest achievement is creating a movement for the underrepresented talents in sports the unsung heroes who lack financial support, guidance, or recognition. Through the Sports Army Foundation, we aim to identify, nurture, and empower such athletes across India.
We’re also proud supporters of the Fit India Movement initiated by Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji. Our mission is not just to produce national champions but to inspire a healthier, fitter, and more sports-driven India.
