PV Sindhu is delighted to announce the groundbreaking of the PV Sindhu Center for Badminton and Sports Excellence in Visakhapatnam. This ceremony marks the first step toward establishing a world-class facility dedicated to nurturing and empowering athletes across multiple sports and disciplines in Visakhapatnam.
In the face of local challenges, Sindhu and Team PVS have continued forward with the invaluable support of Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu Garu, Commissioner of Police Bagchi Garu, and the Collector of Visakhapatnam, Harendra Prasad. Their support has been crucial in reaching this milestone, helping to realize Sindhu’s dream of a facility that champions the aspirations of athletes across India. Sindhu has entrusted Pavilion Infra and Kartheek to oversee the execution of this project.
Sindhu expressed her excitement, saying, “I’m truly grateful to be building this center for the incredible people of Vizag. In choosing a location, I couldn’t imagine a better place than this wonderful city. This center will be a space where athletes of all levels and from any discipline can find a home—and a mentor—dedicated to guiding the next generation to the top.”
A project deeply meaningful to Sindhu, this center represents her commitment to giving back to the sport and community that have supported her journey. She shared, “I’ve always dreamed of building a place where young players can truly thrive, with world-class training and the support they need to reach their full potential. This center is more than just a facility—it’s a call to action. As Indian badminton faces challenges in terms of results, I feel it’s my responsibility to lead the way and guide the next generation. With the tremendous support athletes receive from BAI and SAI, I feel I am in a unique position to make a difference. I’m deeply motivated to create something that will not only elevate Indian badminton but contribute to the growth of sports in our country as a whole.”
This initiative has been made possible through a valuable partnership with Greenko, whose commitment and unwavering support have been instrumental in bringing Sindhu’s vision to life. She expressed heartfelt thanks, saying, “With Greenko’s partnership and the steadfast backing of Gopi Uncle, I am confident this center will become a beacon of excellence and opportunity.”
The groundbreaking ceremony, held at 6:00 AM at Arilova Junction in Visakhapatnam, marks a major milestone in Sindhu’s career and her commitment to uplifting the next generation of athletes. This center stands as a testament to her vision of guiding future champions toward realizing their dreams and enhancing India’s presence on the global stage across multiple sports.
