Even the school managements are unable to spare time to follow a systematic and scientific way of promoting sports owing to academic compulsions.”
He said these adopted schools will enter into deal with Tenvic, which will take care of the training, evaluation, exposure and infrastructure departments.

Bangara Raju from his Europe trip”.
Producing world beaters
He said the ultimate intent of the initiative was long-term athletic development. “A ten-year plan is imperative to produce world champions by meticulously following fixation of milestones, process of reaching them, evaluation, nutrition, recovery and these activities should be monitored, recorded and documented on a daily basis”.
Tenvic is turning out to be one of the finest agencies which promote sports education in the country. With Anil Kumble at the helm of things, discipline and vision will clearly be secondary to none.
