Sports

Tata Steel has used its know-how and resources in the area of sports to help tribals discover their untapped potential, enabling them to gain a foothold in the social mainstream and the confidence to compete and excel.

Every year, Tata Steel identifies 12 potential tribal athletes and provides them subsistence and accommodation along with training. It assists them to participate in the state, regional and National meets. All this is done at an approximate cost of Rs. 1,25,000 annually.

The Company also enables tribals to enter the Tata Archery Academy where they are trained in a sport that they already have a flair for. The Tata Football Academy and Tata Athletic Academy also nurtures and trains the participants from Jharkhand and Orissa.

   
I owe the silver medal...

"Tribal Cultural Society, like every year organized a talent search at Jamshedpur. I was identified and from then all my expenses including boarding and lodging charges were borne by TCS.
 
The training and the effort put in by TCS did give results. I am a proud winner of Silver Medal at the Asian Junior Athletics Championship, Malaysia
