In such situations, IMT Sports Research Centre has designed a program that will improve their employability.This is the first of its type course in the country.
Hope this will benefit a large number of players," he said.Meanwhile, Ashok Dhyan Chand, son of former Olympian and hockey wizard Major Dhyan Chand, lavished praise on the initiative and said, "In India, parents keep children away from sports because players have very less employment opportunities.

"Along with this, after the end of sports life, it will prove to be a milestone for the players to get government, non-government jobs and employment in the private sector," he said."Players who win medals in international competitions get huge prizes, name, prestige and employment, but lakhs of national and state level players in various sports face the crisis of employment.
This course is being started for the empowerment of these players," he said.cs/inj #Ghaziabad #Certificate #Program #upscale # Vishal Ashok #Vishal #Alwar #Ghaziabad .
