Q. What is the grassroots programme?
Our main centre is at Marine Lines which is led by IAAF Certified Coach Dr.Ravindra Kumar Walmiki. This may be far for some athletes residing in different parts of Mumbai. Hence, to take the benefits of our coaching to grounds near athletes, we have begun a grassroots programme in 2020. These sessions, held on grass tracks or mud ground (and not on synthetic tracks like the main centre) are led by our Coaches and Senior athletes who have been State or National Medalists. The grassroots programme is suited for athletes from beginner to intermediate levels. Once the athelte reaches the State Level, he/she is transferred to the main centre.
The coaching plan, training and testing methodology followed at our grassroots centres is on par with the main centre, though the level of expertise and competition differs. Further, since our grassroots programmes are led by coaches who have been with Sprinters Sports Club for more than 3 years, the quality is top notch.
Q. How do I pay the fees?
You can pay the fees by cash or cheque in favour of 'Sprinters Club' or by direct transfer to our account.
Q. Can I get any concession in the fee?
Yes! As a token of our appreciation and support to deserving athletes, athletes participating at state levels get upto 40% concession and athletes participating at national levels get upto 50% concession on the fees! Athletes who win medals at the national level get 100% concession on the coaching fees!
