GoSports Foundation
The GoSports Foundation is an independent, donor-funded non-profit venture working towards securing funds and professional expertise for some of India's junior Olympic and Paralympic athletes. Established in 2008, it has worked with numerous athletes from across multiple Olympic and Paralympic disciplines through its scholarship programs.
Special projects

- Coach Education Programmes for badminton coaches are held every year in association with the Badminton Association of India.
