Adarsh Sports Teacher Awards Ceremony by Eklavya Sports Academy

While successful athletes often bask in the limelight, the coaches quietly sculpt their success. Recognising this invaluable contribution, the Eklavya Sports Academy of SSM and Panchayat Samiti Biloli celebrated National Sports Day on August 29th by honouring eight dedicated coaches from Biloli taluka with the prestigious ‘Adarsh Sports Teacher Awards.’

This marks the second year of this heartfelt initiative, which began last year to spotlight these unsung sports education heroes. The Adarsh Sports Teacher Award 2023 recipients are Shri Jadhav Balaji Parbatrao (Shankarnagar), Shri. Saireddy Thakkurwad (Biloli), Shri Sheikh Jainuddin (Adampur), Shri. Bavge (Laghul), Mr Vijay Bidkar and Mr Shyamrao Waghmare (Sagroli), Mr. Dastgir Chand Pasha (Biloli), and Mr Degaonkar (Kondalwadi).

The awards ceremony was graced by the presence of Pramod Deshmukh, Chairman of SSM, along with esteemed industrialist Mr Kishore Bhai Suratwale and Block Education Officer of Panchayat Samiti Biloli, Shri Balaji Patil. This event honours these exceptional mentors and underscores coaches’ vital role in nurturing sporting talent.
