23/09/2021

With the general situation improving, we have started our field activities in a full pledged way. Canvassing for new school enrolments, inducting new players and coaches, getting for them play ground etc are in full swing.

As we step out to field, we fondly recollect that we have run our program successfully for more than a decade. We did a lot, we beniitted many, faced challenges and made our own mark.

However, we need to redefine our path keeping the exerience we have had and the challenges we will face in our sole objective of giving happiness and creative opportunities to our stake holders.

We took part in the Delhi State Championships 2021

Shri Kamleswar Suri thought of calling our supporters for a online session a few days ago to shape our thoughts and polish our pathway. We invited all in the I support OTHL whatsapp group for the session.

Besides Suri Ji, Shri Mohiddin, Shri Abhinav Ji and Shri K. Arumugam attended the session and shared their vision.

The following views emerged after almost an hour long session. We request others to share their views and put forward their suggestion.
