Coaching camp: Preparing Tribal kids for the Nationals

In the field of sports Don Bosco Kawant has been exceptional this year especially in Hockey and Football, as our teams were the champions in the District level.
To sustain this performance of our kids there is a coaching camp held in our campus for our kids during the Diwali holidays. Our kids are sacrificing their holidays to improve themselves in skill and stamina so that one day they to may reach Delhi to play in the National’s just as their seniors did. This coaching camp was fully planned by Bro Ramesh D sdb. He makes arrangements for coaches to come and give training to our Adivasi kids who are ready and willing to learn.
We have 3 coaches that comes all the way from Bombay to train our kids, each sacrificing their time for the love of our children here in Kawant, Gujarat. They are Leslie, Javed and Michael. It is through their special guidance and presence our children have picked up the skill and insight to the game they are learning. The kids are having a good 8 hours training in the day. That is from 6:00 am till 11:00 am in the morning and then 4:00 pm till 7:00 pm in the evening. The good number of hours of training is helping our kids to gain skill, accuracy and a lot of stamina.
All the sacrifice, pain and hard work put in by our children will surely pay back in the future. We wish them all the very best as they pursue their interest in sports and for the tournaments they shall partake in the future.
