Gravate Sports (grv8), co-founded by RJ Anmol and Puneet Goyal, organized India’s first-ever CXO Pickleball League in Mumbai. Sports icon Saina Nehwal and business stalwart Dr. Niranjan Hiranandani graced the event and even teamed up for a friendly match. In a light-hearted moment, Dr. Hiranandani received an autographed racket from Saina.
Pickleball is rapidly emerging as one of the fastest-growing sports globally, and India is quickly catching up.
Speaking about the sport's rising popularity, Saina said, “I’m hearing that Pickleball might be included in the Olympics in the coming years, and I won’t be surprised if that happens. I see a lot of people playing it as a source of entertainment.”
As a word of caution, she added, “I would just say that one should play the sport carefully and with proper guidance, as I’ve seen many regular players suffer injuries.”
With 16 teams and 31 matches, the day saw several CXOs taking to the court and enjoying the league in high spirits.
