THE BEGINNING OF THE SPORTS REVOLUTION

When the journey had begun - there were many misgivings, there were many visions of failure; but now that more than TWO THOUSAND [more being added every day] children are actively playing BASKETBALL there is a clear focus ahead. Tournaments are the key to involvement - this was clearly seen on the last day of the camp; when children who had never learnt the game were seen wearing all types of coloured shirts and willing to play matches.

AND those who hadn't learnt the game were easily outclassed by those who knew the game. This then is the elixir we must use again and again. Conduct more and more tournaments, create `any type' of infrastructure - give them the knowledge of the basic skills and rules; the basketball revolution can begin in right earnest.

BUT CAN ONE MAHAJAN ALONE DO IT? CERTAINLY NOT. We need `players' in larger and larger numbers - volunteers - trainee coaches - sports loving people in power who can make a major difference - parents to encourage their children - school managements willing to invest in `joy' of children by putting up basketball infrastructure.

Roller skaters have taken over the Basketball court in Distt. Stadium, Tumkur. But then how many basketball players play on a regular basis. AND HOW MANY OF US RESPECT THIS MAN `MAHAJAN' WHO COMES FROM BANGALORE to create the basketball revolution. Working with adult basketball players who only wish to `play for themselves' have destroyed the game everywhere. Unless they contribute by encouraging other beginners the `sports revolution' cannot take place.
