People have now started pursuing para-badminton as career option, says Manasi Joshi | Badminton News

People have now started pursuing para-badminton as career option, says Manasi Joshi | Badminton News
MUMBAI: Reigning para-badminton world champion Manasi Joshi has said that many more people in the country have now started looking at para-badminton as a full-fledged career option. Joshi shared her vision and future plans while talking to Indian paddler Mudit Dani‘s on his online talk show “In the Sportlight” and during the chat, she said that she wants to take the sport to far greater heights. “Since 2015 para badminton has picked up and even able body badminton people love it and it’s the second most favourite sport in our country. I see people choosing para badminton as a career option. I see in the next five years, more and more people taking up para sports. People will pursue it to the highest level,” Joshi said. Joshi, who started playing badminton professionally in 2014, has been training under Gopichand for the last two years. She is determined to do her bit in changing the country’s perception on being differently abled. “Post badminton I want to be a part of a script that changes perception about people with disability in India. I want to make it better for future generations,” Joshi said. “I will definitely see myself involved in sports because the experience I have gained, I want to utilise it to the fullest to develop and train young athletes. I want people to use the experience that I have gained,” she added. Olympic medal winning coach Gopichand has groomed and honed Joshi’s technical and tactical skills. She believes she is a better player since she started working with Gopichand. “He always advises to keep pushing and keep on working. And when you are out for matches or tournaments, it’s the most important advice you get from your coach. Gopi sir pays attention to even minor things and I’m learning technical tricks from the best,” Joshi, who considers Gopichand as inspiration with his glorious career as a player and as well as coach, Manasi said.

‘Society, government need to be more considerate towards people with disability’ - other sports
30-year-old para-athlete Manasi Joshi gained recognition after she clinched a gold medal at BWF Para-badminton World Championships last year. After a competition-heavy 2019, Manasi was eyeing a berth at the Tokyo Paralympics, with qualifying tournaments approaching. But the coronavirus pandemic tore the sporting calendar to shreds as tournaments all over the world started getting suspended. Just before Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a 21-day lockdown in India, Manasi, who was at her badminton academy in Hyderabad, flew back home to Ahmedabad to be with her family.At home, during a grocery run, Manasi realised the difficulties a person with disabilities has to face amid the nationwide lockdown, at a time of an unprecedented public health emergency. Speaking to Hindustan Times in an exclusive interview, the para-badminton star gave a glimpse of her life at home amid lockdown:“Lockdown has affected my training. My academy in Hyderabad got closed, so I returned home to Ahmedabad to stay with my parents. Luckily, I reached before the lockdown was imposed, otherwise, I would have to stay in Hyderabad alone. I am doing home-workouts, keeping in touch with my physio, trainer and my dietician. They have planned a proper schedule for me. They are helping me to figure out what training I can continue to do during the lockdown.���There is a limit to what exercises I am able to do at home, though. There are a lot of cardio-exercises I am unable to do. We had created a gym as per requirements, but now I have to readapt to my current requirements. So, it is obviously a problem. But we are trying to adapt to whatever situation we are having.“In the meantime, I have enrolled for an online course on ‘Disability Awareness and Support by University of Pittsburgh’. I have been reading and keeping myself busy. I am writing emails, talking to people. I had a busy year in 2019, so I didn’t get time to be social with people or connect with my friends. So, now is the time to get all those things going. I am keeping in touch with people. Every day, I try to contact my friends and check up with them how things are going, and what is happening in their lives.“I am also cooking at home. It was a hobby of mine, but then I started cooking to survive. But now, I can cook to experiment, which I enjoy. I made South Indian food for my family the other day. We used to have a cook aunty who would come to my place and cook some amazing delicacies. I tried to cook Palak paneer, and beans in her style. I try to put a twist in everything, and do some experiment with it. I made a different type of Frankie, which turned out to be really tasty. So, I am trying to experiment with my cooking, and eat different stuff. But of course, following my diet (laughs).“I also watch TV. I watched Special-Ops on Hotstar. It was quite interesting. I didn’t get much time to read anything, though. I keep myself busy 24X7.“With Paralympics getting postponed by one year, it has exceeded my hopes of going to Tokyo and to compete for a medal. So, this hope is keeping me quite motivated these days. One year is a lot of time for me to work on my development. It’s definitely a blessing in disguise for me.“Last year, we had a lot of tournaments. Every 15-20 day we used to play a tournament. I had broken one of my prosthesis when I was in China for my World Championships. After that, even though I tried to change the cue part of my prosthetic, I was unable to reach the alignment that I used to play at. So, now I have the time to adapt and learn to play with my new prosthesis.“I, now have time to learn different skills and styles. I have also placed an order for running prosthetics. So, I am also planning to learn running this year. I have kind of forgotten how to run. So, I am hopeful this will be helpful in training. I am keeping my fingers crossed.“I am following the WHO guidelines on how to prevent oneself from coronavirus - washing hands, wearing masks in public, maintaining social distance. Another thing I keep doing is keeping my prosthetic devices clean. At home, I use crutches, and walkers, so I keep their surfaces clean by wiping them with sanitizer.“At our household, we take turns to buy groceries. So, I also went out one day and I realised that it’s not easy for me. I had to stand in the queue for too long. Usually, I would just sit and wait for my turn, and not stand in the queue. But these days, I don’t want to contaminate myself. “People know me, my disability was quite visible, I was in my shorts. But nobody gave up their tokens for me. People who were distributing tokens, did not think that they should think about putting me ahead in line, so I won’t have to stand for too long. I had only gone to buy essentials, and not for fun.“I went for vegetable shopping later, and there were people pushing me in order to get their shopping done first. When people push me, I lose my balance, even if I am just standing.“I really wish people and government are considerate and kind enough to allow people with disabilities and senior citizens to give them a chance to get their grocery shopping done first. I really appreciate how these supermarkets are still running in these times. But I just wish there could be some rule to allow people with disabilities to go first, but then it would also be better if people become considerate themselves.“It struck me that I live in Hyderabad alone, and what if I was there on my own. At least, here, I have my siblings, here. If I ask them to go grocery shopping, they will do it for me, they are super supportive. But then, in our household, we treat everyone equally. I believe in being independent. I don’t want to be dependent on anyone. But I would request authorities to understand and be a little more kind and considerate.“People with disabilities have to touch other surfaces to know where we exactly are, and at this time, people are advised not to touch. People with disabilities are at higher risk of catching COVID-19, we are the ones who need more attention. We should keep in mind that disabled people are also vulnerable members of the society who are getting more affected by the lockdown. We should think about larger things than ‘my own problem’.“I cannot go on to just say that everything is perfect if it is not. People are empathic, but to sensitise the general public, we have to create more awareness. If I say that you need to help people with disabilities, all people say is that we will get groceries for them. That is not the type of help I require, all I need is mere ko pehle jaane do. If you don’t wish to give your token, it’s fine. But at least tell authories inko pehle jaane do.“We need to change how people react to disaster in such a scenario, and how we treat the vulnerable sections of the society. We have to think from a different perspective when we are devising a plan on how to tackle this pandemic.”As told to Karan Prashant Saxena Read the full article

BHIM-UPI TOISA: PV Sindhu shines brightest amongst sports winners for 2019 - Times of India
New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/bhim-upi-toisa-pv-sindhu-shines-brightest-amongst-sports-winners-for-2019-times-of-india/
BHIM-UPI TOISA: PV Sindhu shines brightest amongst sports winners for 2019 - Times of India
NEW DELHI: PV Sindhu, Rohit Sharma, Rani, Saurabh Chaudhary, Dutee Chand, Manu Bhaker, Bajrang Punia and Jaspal Rana are some of the prominent names that featured among the winners at the Times of India Sports Awards (TOISA) powered by BHIM-UPI, which honoured the best performances in Indian sport in 2019 at a glittering awards function in Delhi on Thursday.
The who’s who of India’s sports fraternity were present at the awards ceremony, including one of the country’s most legendary sports persons, hockey Olympian Balbir Singh Sr, who was part of three of India’s gold-medal winning teams at the Olympics, besides being the manager of the squad that lifted the 1975 World Cup.
The event was also attended by a few very special guests – members of the 1980 Olympics gold medal winning hockey team, including captain V Basakaran, MM Somaiya, Mervyn Fernandes, Zafar Iqbal, Surinder Singh Sodhi and MK Kaushik.
Sindhu’s historic feat of becoming the first Indian to win the badminton World Championships remained unmatched and she was, therefore, named the ‘Sportsperson of the Year’, besides being the joint winner in the Jury’s Choice Award for ‘Badminton Player of the Year’ along with Sai Praneeth. Sindhu, who is currently ranked sixth in the BWF Rankings, completed a hat-trick by winning the ‘Unbreakable Spirit of Sport award’ as well. She is set to enter the Tokyo Olympics in an endeavour to improve on the women’s singles silver medal she won in Rio four years ago.
The men’s award in the badminton category went to 2019 BWF World Championships bronze medallist Sai Praneeth, who created history by becoming only the second man after Prakash Padukone to win a medal at the premier tournament.
The elite panel of jury members that picked the ‘Jury’s Choice Award’ in 19 categories included former India cricketer Gautam Gambhir; former India football captain Bhaichung Bhutia; hockey’s Olympic gold medallist Zafar Iqbal; Asian Games silver medallist and former athlete Ashiwni Nachappa; the first Indian paralympian to win two gold medals at the Paralympics, Devendra Jhajaria; and Chief Editor of Times Internet Limited, Rajesh Kalra.
The ‘Cricketer of the Year’ award went to Rohit, who set the 2919 ICC World Cup ablaze with a record five centuries, besides crossing many more landmarks in the year. Women’s hockey captain Rani, whose goal helped the team qualify for its second consecutive Olympic appearance, was named the ‘Hockey Player of the Year’. She was also selected as the ‘Inspiration of the Year’ for her exploits in 2019, which also saw Rani winning the ‘World Games Athlete of the Year’ award — the first Indian and the first hockey player to achieve the feat.
In the men’s category for ‘Hockey Player of the Year’, Harmanpreet Singh was named the winner, as he turned into a leader of India’s defence, which played a major role in India achieving its best ever world rank of No. 4.
The ‘Team of the Year’ award was won by the men’s hockey team which achieved its best ever FIH rank of 4, besides qualifying for the Tokyo Olympics. Meanwhile shooting star turned National junior coach Jaspal Rana was chosen as the ‘Coach of the Year’ for producing talents like Manu Bhaker and Saurabh Chaudhary.
Incidentally, Chaudhary and Bhaker were joint winners in the ‘Shooter of the Year’ category. In a pathbreaking year for Indian shooting, the duo bagged the 10m Air Pistol mixed team gold in each of the four ISSF World Cups in 2019, besides bagging the Tokyo Olympics quotas in the men’s and women’s 10m Air Pistol.
The other male-female winning combos included Anish Bhanwala (shooting) and Lalremsiami (hockey) as the ‘Emerging Players of the Year’. While Bhanwala won a gold and a bronze in 25m Standard Pistol at the two 2019 World Cups, hockey striker Lalremsiami was named the ‘FIH Rising Star of the Year for 2019’ — a first for an Indian woman. In athletics, Tajinder Pal Singh Toor and Dutee Chand bagged the ‘Athlete of the Year’ awards. Shot-putter Toor won gold medals at the Asian Athletics Championships, while Dutee’s history-making moment came at the World Universiade, where she became the first Indian woman sprinter to win gold.
Amit Panghal and Lovlina Borgohain were the joint winners in the boxing category, while Saurav Ghosal and Joshna Chinappa were selected as the best squash players.
Panghal’s memorable 2019 included a golden hat-trick at the Strandja Memorial, Asian Boxing Championships and India Open; and his best moment came when he won his maiden medal, a silver, at the World Championships.
Borgohain too had a brilliant year in the boxing ring, where she claimed a bronze at the Strandja Memorial, gold at the Salam Umakhanov Memorial and a bronze at the World Championships.
Squash star Ghosal won the Asian Individual Squash Championships, which helped him enter the top 10 of PSA Rankings. Both those achievements were a first for an Indian male squash player. Chinappa, on the other hand, defended her Asian Individual Squash Championships crown and then won a record record 17th title at the National Squash Championships.
Top Indian wrestler Punia started 2019 by winning the gold medal at the Asian Wrestling Championships. Later in the year, his consistency at the international level earned him the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna. At the World Championships, he had to settle for a bronze medal, but it helped him bag an Olympic quota for India in the 65kg freestyle category. Vinesh had a successful run in 2019, which culminated with her maiden medal (bronze) at the World Championships and a quota place at the Tokyo Olympics.
Archers Deepika Kumari and Abhishek Verma were also among the winners. Deepika won gold at the 2019 Asian Championships and with it an Olympic quota in women’s recurve.
Mirabai Chanu made a terrific return from injury in 2019, with gold medals at the EGAT Cup and the Commonwealth Weightlifting Championship. Sathish Sivalingam was the male winner in the weightlifting category.
At the World Championships in September 2019, Chanu improved on her own national record and came agonisingly close to a podium finish before settling for a fourth-place finish in the 49kg category. In the process, she became the first woman weightlifter from the country to breach the magical mark of 200kg.
Among the other ‘Jury’s Choice’ award winners were billiards and snooker player Sourav Kothari, chess star R Pragnanandha and football icon Sunil Chhetri.
In para-sports, shuttlers Pramod Bhagat and Manasi Joshi were the jury’s pick as winners for their feats at the 2019 World Championships, where they both won gold medals in the singles categories becoming world champions.
Bhagat became a force to reckon with in 2019, winning twin gold medals at the Para-Badminton World Championships in the men’s singles (SL3 category) and men’s doubles (SL3-4 category). An IIT graduate, Bhagat contracted polio as a 7-year-old but never let that impede his ambitions.
Joshi secured her maiden gold at the Para World Championship. An engineer by qualification, Manasi lost her left leg in an accident in 2011. She enrolled at the Pullela Gopichand Academy in Hyderabad in 2018 and since then has not looked back.
Some of the special awards given on the occasion included the prestigious ‘Lifetime Achievement Award’ to Bhaichung Bhutia, ‘Mentor of the Year’ to India’s national badminton coach Pullela Gopichand and ‘Youth Icon of the Year’ to Vijender Singh, the Olympic-medal winning boxer who turned pro a few years ago.
Also, the state of Odisha was conferred with the award for ‘Change Agent of the Year’ for its contribution towards sports, and the Reliance Foundation was named the ‘Corporate Supporter of the Year’.
