The Telangana government has been a firm supporter of the Hyderabad sports community. The earlier event on Monday was another demonstration of their commitment to enabling sport and recreation in a rapidly growing city.
Abhishek Reddy believes that India is finally on its way to replicating the thriving volleyball cultures found in Brazil, Italy, and Japan.
“The Black Hawks team shall create a multi-tiered structure to build from the grassroots. We have plans to promote ‘Chotu Leagues’ for school children and ‘Masti Leagues’ for teenagers to ensure that we broaden the base for the sport in our country,” he said.
The city has a rich tradition of volleyball, and Hyderabad Black Hawks seem set for a rewarding season in the second edition of the country’s premier volleyball tournament.
