"India’s sports market is booming, and female athletes who have long labored in the shadow of men want to make sure they get their share of it." @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/08/21/w...

Despite a growing number of #Indian #women #athletes asserting themselves on the international stage, there is a lack of women working as support staff, in administration, coaching, or even roles such as a physiotherapist or trainer. Shahid Judge writes for @scroll.in scroll.in/field/106489...
