The world of sports is not just about winning or losing; it’s about inspiration, empowerment, and the relentless pursuit of one’s dreams. The Shikhar Dhawan Foundation (SDF) has always believed in these principles, and with the #BeyondGoals initiative, they have taken another significant step towards realizing this vision.
A Platform for Aspiring Footballers
Embarking on a journey of inspiration and empowerment, the Shikhar Dhawan Foundation, through #BeyondGoals, has provided a competitive platform for young aspiring athletes. With mentorship from football luminaries, this initiative has given 90 talented young girls from underserved backgrounds a chance to shine. Organized into 5 teams, these athletes showcased their soccer prowess through 10 intense matches, culminating in a thrilling final match.
