Empowering Para Cricketers: A Path to Pride and Recognition

At the Shirdi Sai Baba Foundation, we firmly believe that every individual, regardless of physical challenges, has the right to pursue their dreams with pride and dignity. Para Cricketers embody the true spirit of resilience, determination, and unwavering passion. These athletes, despite facing significant physical barriers, possess extraordinary zeal to excel in cricket, yet they are often met with insults and discrimination due to their conditions.

The Shirdi Sai Baba Foundation has come forward to support these inspiring individuals, ensuring they live their lives with the respect and recognition they truly deserve. Our mission is to empower Para Cricketers by providing them the opportunity to play at the highest level, earn recognition, and showcase their skills to the world.

Our Commitment: Supporting 20 Para Cricketers

The Foundation is in the process of adopting 20 Para Cricketers, offering them not just financial aid but a platform to shine. With the support of corporate sponsors and renowned Indian Cricket players, we have garnered crucial backing for the PCCAI (Para Cricket Council of India). Through these collaborations, we are able to provide the players with the resources, training, and exposure needed to excel on an international stage.

International Exposure: Connecting with the World

The Sai Baba Peace Foundation has organized several high-profile matches featuring the PCCAI Team against teams from Pakistan, South Africa, Afghanistan, and England—giving these athletes a global platform to showcase their talent and determination. These international matches not only highlight their sporting prowess but also send a powerful message of inclusion, unity, and respect for all athletes, regardless of physical challenges.

Making a Difference

Through our efforts, we are not only changing the lives of Para Cricketers, but we are also challenging societal perceptions, proving that with the right support, determination, and a platform, these athletes can achieve greatness. Para Cricketers deserve to be celebrated for their skill, spirit, and contribution to the game—just like any other player.

With the Shirdi Sai Baba Foundation, we are ensuring that their voices are heard, their talents are recognized, and their futures are brighter. Together, we can make a lasting impact on their lives and inspire countless others to break barriers and achieve the extraordinary.
