How to get in India national training Camp ?
ReplyDeleteIf you are a Boy, go to state like Delhi, Punjab, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh. If you are a Girl,go to state like Chhattisgarh, West Bengal, Madhya Pradesh, Kerala and Karnataka there so-called academy and nursery of basketball will induct you in a school to reduce your age from a 19/20 year boy/girl to U-16 and 16/17 year boy/girl to U-14 category ( How come player from these states coincidentally born only in month of January, to have more advance of the age cutoff date of 1st January and we know Indian education system and surprised to find out that 14 year old players are studying in 12th Class). Irrespective of how good you are in basketball at any level but you should have some Godfather or some sound reference in the Federation and selection committee.
