GMR Sports-owned UP Yoddhas launched their official jersey for the upcoming Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) Season 12 at an event in partnership with their Principal Sponsor Hero FinCorp in Mumbai.
The new kit signifies the UP Yoddhas’ indomitable spirit, drawing from GMR Sports’ signature colours of blue and red, infused with an arrow-inspired design — a symbol of precision, focus, and unstoppable forward momentum. Every detail reflects the team’s resilient ideology, with vibrant hues capturing the energy and determination that define them on the mat.
Hero FinCorp’s association as Principal Sponsor marks a positive step in the Yoddhas’ journey to strengthen their brand presence and fan connect. The organisation’s dynamic ethos aligns seamlessly with the Yoddhas’ drive for excellence, which makes the partnership a natural fit.
