Vision & Mission

Welcome to our residential badminton academy, in collaboration with the legendary Prakash Padukone. As a former World No. 1 player and an icon in Indian badminton, Padukone brings unparalleled expertise and passion to our training program

His historic wins, including the All England Championship in 1980 and an Olympic bronze medal, mark him as a true champion. Beyond his achievements, Padukone’s grace, humility, and dedication inspire us all to reach new heights on and off the court.

“Student-athletes who wish to excel in badminton while pursuing academics are a perfect fit for our program. They get to explore the best of both worlds”
