Vighnesh Shahane, CEO, IDBI Federal Life Insurance, said,<\/b>\u00a0\u201cI have always been keen on nurturing grassroots sports. While QFE was primarily conceived with the idea of supporting country’s quest for Gold in 2020 Olympics. With Gopi at the helm of things, we thought it’s going to be great if we could launch a nationwide initiative that would help identify emerging talent and bring it to Gopi. It would also be great to see those kids grow into rising stars of\u00a0tomorrow<\/span><\/span>. We want this initiative to be a launch pad for the stars of\u00a0tomorrow<\/span><\/span>.\u201d<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n

Pullela Gopichand, Chief National Coach for the Indian Badminton team and Programme head, Quest For Excellence, said<\/b>, \u201cIndia\u2019s youth has great potential in terms of sporting activities. With #YoungChamps campaign we hope to bring to the fore this hidden talent and prepare them for big leagues where they can represent India globally. I request parents to come forward and upload their kids\u2019 videos and give them a chance to showcase their badminton talent.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
