Project Prerana

Nurturing the Champions of Tomorrow

Project Prerana is a transformative grassroots sports initiative led by all of us here at the Bengaluru Sports Foundation in partnership with Sapthagiri Vidyamandira. Our mission is to ignite and nurture the athletic talent of young students.particularly those aged 10 to 14. We aim to accomplish this via Kho-Kho, a dynamic sport that serves as a foundational platform.

A Vision for Holistic Development

We believe that sports can be a catalyst for both physical and personal growth. Our program is designed to:

Build Athletic Excellence

By emphasizing agility, endurance and strength, we help young athletes develop the core skills essential not only for Kho-Kho but for all sports.

Cultivate Leadership and Team Spirit

Through rigorous training and competitive play, our students learn the values of teamwork, discipline and perseverance.

Provide Comprehensive Support

Our approach combines specialized coaching, sports career counseling, nutritional guidance and regular physiotherapy to ensure a well-rounded athletic journey.

The Project Journey

Project Prerana began as a visionary collaboration aimed at tapping into the immense potential lying dormant in our local communities. What started as a focused effort on Kho-Kho has rapidly evolved into a multi-faceted program that touches upon every aspect of a young athlete’s life. Our structured training sessions, intensive summer boot camps, and regular camps throughout the year create an environment where each student can thrive.

National-Level Impact

Our training methods and commitment to excellence have already begun to yield significant results on the national stage. In the past year, our national selections have risen from 12 to 19 appearances across a variety of prestigious competitions. These achievements are a testament to the hard work of our athletes and the support of our coaching team.
