From a small village in Punjab to Finland’s biggest football stage, Minerva Academy has created history!
Built on Coach Ranjit Bajaj’s belief, sacrifice and relentless passion, this academy went from having no facilities to defeating Liverpool FC 6–0 and becoming the first Indian team to win the Helsinki Cup.
A reminder that dreams don’t need perfect conditions — they need people who refuse to give up.

Goal in 6 consecutive knockout World Cup matches; Highest number of World Cup assists; Most goal contributions in World Cup - Messi. A breathtaking 20-min spell of pure football from Messi & Co.
What more cud one ask for from a World Cup? Simply beautiful. ⚽ #argentina
Vaibhav Suryavanshi left out once again. #T20I#Cricket
“We have two changes. Suryansh & Prince come in and make their debut.Shedge is a sensational cricketer, both in domestic cricket and the IPL," Iyer said, adding that Prince was a "smart" cricketer who would "adapt to things”
Shreyas Iyer said while Sooryavanshi was a ‘gun’ player, the team did not want to tinker with the ‘tremendously’ experienced combination that won the 2026 men’s T20 World Cup. And India endured a humiliating defeat. #T20Is#IndiaTourOfIreland#Cricket
While India watched the IPL, Odisha quietly built champions.
From world-class training centres to scouting talent in remote villages, the state is rewriting India’s Olympic story.
With top coaches, global certifications, and massive infrastructure, this is long-term vision in action.
The question is — is talent lacking, or are systems failing our athletes?
Should other states follow Odisha’s playbook? Tell us in the comments below.

Every now and then sport produces a moment that challenges an old assumption
This rocket-like free kick from Manisha was one of those moments
Challenged the assumption that raw football talent doesn’t exist in India
Our real challenge is to locate it early and build an ecosystem that can nurture it
Because the rockets are clearly there.
We just need more launchpads
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💪🏽
🚨 THIS IS PRETTY HUGE NEWS, FOLKS! 🚨
Indian stars Gurpreet Singh, Sunil Chhetri & Sandesh Jhingan have appealed to FIFA to intervene and Save Indian football 🇮🇳
India’s top leagues ISL & I-League currently suspended due to a lack of Commercial Partners
A legend who deserves far more hype for changing the face of Indian football. 🇮🇳⚽
India’s top scorer and once the world’s third-highest active goal scorer—behind only Ronaldo and Messi.
Coached first by his mother, Sunil Chhetri rose through financial struggles, played through pain, and led India to historic victories.
Seven-time AIFF Player of the Year. Retired from the pitch, never from our hearts.
Salute, Captain Fantastic.

In a world where healthcare can often mean financial ruin, he built a sanctuary of hope. Dr. Ravi Kannan believes that no one should have to choose between treatment and survival.
He transformed a small unit into a world-class, nearly-free cancer care centre, treating over 70,000 patients with not just medicine, but with free food, shelter, and profound compassion. His creed is simple yet revolutionary: "No one should sell land to buy chemo."
Honouring the phenomenal Dr. Ravi Kannan, our Health Changemaker.
On 18th September, we honoured the legacy of real heroes like Dr. Kannan.
Tomorrow, we build upon it. The TBI Showcase, presented by Optum and supported by M3M Foundation, is not the final chapter of their stories, but the prologue to yours.
Let their courage inspire your action. Let their innovation fuel your ideas. Let their compassion open your heart. Together, we can amplify this impact. The celebration ends, but the movement has just begun.
