In the recently concluded Rio Olympics 2016, India sent its largest ever Olympic contingent comprising of 118 athletes. Despite the large number of athletes, the Indian contingent managed to bag only 2 medals in the Games viz., one Silver medal in Badminton and one Bronze medal in Wrestling. Considering the size of our country it can be said that the present performance was not up to the country’s potential. Views/suggestions are invited on what specific steps need to be taken to realise full sporting potential of India in forthcoming Olympics in 2020, 2024 and 2028.

Govt. may consider employing effective measures for funding and running of sports, in line with those in leading Olympic sports nations, based on the methods adopted by them for success. Countries like UK, Germany, Holland, US, Australia are good examples

Govt needs to increase budget allocation on Olympic sports development, building of infrastructure comprising several Olympic sports facilities (minimal in nature), with quaity equipment and multi-gyms. Regular funding must be provided for maintenance of these facilities and replacement of equipment after a specified period of time, or when rendered unusable

Need to have many superior skilled talent spotters, coaches and fitness trainers who will work with children and youth. These experts need to be very much knowledgeable about modern methods, with hands on exposure. Their skills need to be refreshed every year through mandatory, high intensity training courses of specified hours. Coaches should have good man management skills, and must not compromise on disciplinary issues

Sports facilities should have minimum seating capacity (no huge gallery) not exceeding 1000 seats, depending on sport. Build facilities with multiple playing arenas, so that local communities, including schools, colleges, individuals can practice sports when they have time. Need to ensure children and youth who will practice sports under specialized training, also get good academic exposure (a much needed backup, which will ensure economic security for the individual sportsperson)

Bring sports to masses. Encourage children to learn and practice an Olympic sport during summer vacations and weekends, under coaches, trainers who can impart correct technical skills. Coaches need to be aware of, and have hands on experience in modern coaching techniques on basic and core skills, appropriate training path for talented children and youth. Invest in minimal but must needed infrastructure (playing arena and multi gym, swimming pool) and equipment

जिस प्रकार पढाई में topper करने वाले बच्चों को पुरस्कृत तथा समाज में बहुत सम्मान दिया जाता है।उसी प्रकार स्कूल जीवन से ही जो खेलों में टॉप करते गो उनको पुरस्कृत करने और स्थानीय तथा ऊपरी प्रशासन द्वारा सम्मानित किया जावे।सभी सरकारी कार्यक्रमों में उनको आमंत्रित कर सम्मान दिया जाये तो अभिभावक सिर्फ पढाई पर ही ध्यान न देकर खेलों में भी अपने बच्चो को पूरे उत्साह से भेजें।
