When Mohammad brought these eleven `small sized' players on the morning of 1st Jan, 2009 to Bangalore I wondered if I was doing the right thing. Individually, I have trained a crowd of more than 500 with about 60 balls - but that was only for one day and the lessons dealt with dribbling only. Here, we had to create basketball players in less than three days.
These fellows hardly settled in the Scorpio before they started singing their favorite songs and a couple of mine too. In no time, I felt cocooned in their warmth and from then on it was a breeze. The people who trusted me with their young wards - I cannot thank them enough.
Who were these pioneers in arms with me - BHAVANA, ANUSHA, AJITA, MADHUSHRI, PRASHANTH, MICHAEL, MADHU, ANIL, JEEVAN, LOHIT, RAKSHIT AND from bangalore SUHAS.
