What the Programme Offers
The collaboration goes beyond standard school coaching. Students will receive structured training across six sports backed by scientific methods, progressive learning pathways, and integrated strength and conditioning frameworks — all within their school ecosystem so athletics can develop alongside academics.
Anshita Gupta, CEO of Da One Group, emphasised the significance of the Army Public School network: institutions that have been producing athletes “who embody resilience, character, and national pride” for decades. The programme aims to complement this existing legacy rather than replace it, adding structured exposure and mentorship where it previously lacked formal pathways.
Brig. Tejender Choudhary, Chairman of Army Public School Janglot, welcomed the tie-up, noting that Dhawan’s cricketing legacy and commitment to grassroots development align closely with the values the Army education system already upholds — discipline, focus, and physical excellence.
Da One Sports has signalled this is just the beginning, with Dhawan expressing hope that the Janglot partnership serves as a blueprint for similar collaborations with Army institutions across India.
