The excitement of starting off your career in sports is always unparalleled. And it was seen in abundance among our new batch of students at the Palm Beach 10K Expo Run! 🏃‍♂️

A hands-on learning experience in managing end-to-end operations of a marathon event. 📋

From handling the registrations to checking inventory, distributing race kits and goodie bags, they not only smoothly managed the event but also understood the intricate planning & organization of such an event.

This is the kind of practical exposure that solidifies the foundation of IISM students as they aim to develop themselves in the world of sports. 🎯

First events are always special — and that enthusiasm was evident among our new students who worked at the 2026 Mumbai Ultra Marathon - The 12 Hour Run! 🏃‍♂️

On the occasion of our 80th Independence Day, IISM students were grinding it out to smoothly handle the Mumbai Ultra Marathon in various capacities. 🇮🇳

From baggage management, bib distribution, food & hospitality to managing the crowd and handling runner registrations, it was a thorough on-ground expedition in Event Operations for these youngsters.

We at IISM feel incredibly proud that our students are capitalizing on such practical exposure opportunities. And given this was the first event for many, they are going to cherish these memories for long! 🤝

What does it actually take to build a sporting ecosystem?

Not just athletes.
Not just facilities.

It takes people who can connect the dots, from the first shuttle hit to the biggest stage.

Mizoram’s badminton story is a fascinating look at what can happen when those pieces come together.

And honestly, there’s a lot here for anyone who wants to understand *how sports development really works.*

It started with curiosity.

A fourth-grade Siddhantika Chavan stepped into the world of horse riding, and never looked back. 🏇🏼

The journey brought new academies, different coaches, unfamiliar horses, and plenty of challenges. 📈🚧

Because in equestrian sport, every ride is a partnership. You don't just understand the sport. You have to understand the horse. 🐴❤️

And that's where Siddhantika shines. She has a special connection with the horses others often struggle to work with.

That bond has taken her to National and Military-level competitions, and it's only the beginning.

To stay close to the world she loves, she chose to pursue a Bachelor of Sports Management at IISM, learning the business of sport while continuing to live it every day.

We're incredibly proud to celebrate Siddhantika Chavan as our Athlete of the Month. Here's to many more milestones ahead!
