Relive the Magic of AThlete Unleashed Cricket Camp! 🏏 We're thrilled to share the after-movie of our 2nd AThlete Unleashed Cricket Camp, hosted by the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore on Oct 12-13, 2024. This initiative, organized by Shekhar Naik Foundation, in partnership with AssisTech Foundation (ATF), empowered 25 visually impaired cricketers through a 2-day training camp. Inaugurated by Shri L.S. Tejasvi Surya, MP Bangalore South, and mentored by Padma Shri Awardee Shekhar Naik, former Indian Blind Cricket Team captain. With two successful camps completed, we plan to conduct two more camps in the next six months, empowering more trainee cricketers with expert mentorship from Shekhar Naik! #AThleteUnleashed #AssistiveTech #InclusiveSports #EmpoweringPwD #CricketForAll
