Athlete of the Month – Niti Govind Ladha ⚽
“I was in 4th std when I saw the boys play football and thought, why not give it a shot,” says Niti, a Bachelor of Sports Management student at IISM. 🎓
From training with boys and learning the game from her brother to making her mark in senior district football with a Player of the Series win, her journey has been built on resilience.
Despite a ligament injury in 2022 that kept her out for months, she came back stronger, winning gold and another Player of the Series at the PDFA Seniors.
She has represented Maharashtra at the SGFI U-19 Nationals twice, winning a historic bronze, followed by a silver with the Mumbai Senior Women’s District team. In 2026, she competed at the Khelo India Beach Games, and recently secured a top 3 finish in the MFA Women’s Premier League. She recently captained the Mumbai University team for the west zone and the All India University Games as well. ⚽
Her journey hasn’t been without challenges, from recurring injuries to early scepticism about playing with boys. But with constant support from her family, she turned those doubts into belief, earning her place in the Maharashtra U-19 team for two consecutive years. 🙌
“I chose IISM because of my love and passion for sports… even if I am unable to play professionally, I want to be a part of it in any way.” 🤝
Proud of the immense passion that our students bring for sports, it continues to inspire us at IISM to keep shaping the future of the sporting ecosystem.
