In India August 29th every year is celebrated as National Sports day and is the birthday of Major Dhyan Chand Singh who is the captain of Hockey team which won gold in Olympics.
For his contribution towards the sport and bringing home great laurels to the country, his birthday is celebrated as National Sports Day as a mark of respect and recognition for his sporting genius.
As a part of the celebrations, many sport activities and competitions are conducted in many parts of the country. National awards for various sports, best coach and lifetime achievement awards are distributed for different categories on the National sports day.
Not only our National game-Hockey, but other games are given wide importance, which provides a good platform to sports persons of diverse disciplines. Best things to do on this National Sports Day:
= Encourage children to involve more in sports
= It helps to improve both physical &mental health
= If they fit in the selected sport, help them to make it a career
= Join sport club or reach a best coach for further training, seek the help of the Physical directors of school or college
= Spare time for watching sports in the stadium and feel the sporting spirit.
= Try to know how the sports persons work hard to win medals of lesser known sport.
= Many Games need supporting groups to encourage the upcoming sports persons – be there
Be a sports lover and motivate sportspersons!

Dear Women’s Web Community Member,
You may have wondered at our being on the quieter side during the last couple of months. Thank you for your patience, and we wanted to come back to you with a detailed note on what’s been happening at our end of things.
When we first began Women’s Web, as a blog from one woman’s desk along with a few like-minded souls, little could we have imagined the heights that it would soar to. Over the years, Women’s Web has published over 20000 stories (almost all by women), empowered countless women with the ideas, community and resources to chase their dreams, employed hundreds of women in core and project-based roles, and in the process, emerged as the OG women’s community in India. It has also inspired many others to build communities of a similar nature, all enabling women (and other-underrepresented groups) in their own ways.
