Following its success here last year, Tata Capital and the Prakash Padukone Badminton Academy (PPBA) have come together to launch this year's edition of 'Tata Capital Super Shuttlers' talent hunt for children in the 8-15 age group in Bangalore.
Like last year the hunt is to begin with badminton camps, between July 12 and August 10, at premier sports clubs across Bangalore, said a media release today.
After the 2-day camps, the best players would get to be a part of a two-day tournament in the last week of August, at the Karnataka Badminton Academy and the winners would win the 'Tata Capital Super Shuttlers' trophy and a chance to train with the expert coaches PPBA, the release said.
"Last year, the 'Tata Capital Super Shuttlers' provided a much needed boost to promote badminton in young kids. With the latest edition, we hope yet again to create an opportunity for young kids to take benefit of these training camps and understand the finer qualities of badminton," said shuttle legend Prakash.
"Having received an overwhelming response to our first edition in Mumbai, we are pleased to take this unique initiative to a new city," said Govind Sankaranarayanan, COO of Tata Capital's Retail Business and Housing Finance.
