Sports help us in living a healthy and stress-free life. In olden times it was a very common phrase popular everywhere that “Sports won’t earn a livelihood for you. It can be chosen for fun but not as a career”. But these words are not suitable for the present era. Now a sport can get you fame, livelihood and also worldwide respect. These can be achieved only if you are more than outstanding in your sport field. To perform the best in our sport, we all need is a coach who shows us the right path to go ahead. Their success is directly connected to our success.
