Fistball around the world – India
Fistball around the world – India
We asked a young Indian fistball player about fistball in India. Here’s his story:
Hello readers! You are welcome to know
about the sport fistball in India. I’m Vivek . We really like the sport
fistball. We really require a peace of mind and need to be quick and
it’s a tactical sport. We just love playing this sport. We have 29
states in India and fistball is played in almost all parts. Many people
are interested in this sport and we face a lot of competition to get
selected for the Indian Fistball Team. To our surprise, even our parents
join our games. So they are present outside the court and pretend to
play fistball alongside us. Mr. Parag Wankhede is the secretary for the
Indian fistball team. He’s a very good person and also really interested
in uplifting the sport all over India.
Mr. Prethwiraj Vadakumpuram is the
Indian team coach. He’s also a wonderful person. He’s from Kerala but
lives in Andhra Pradesh where I live as well. Mr. Prethwiraj was the one
who started this sport in our school and trained us well. He always
keeps us on cloud nine and his classes are very motivating. He’s a good
athlete. Not only these two people – there are many across India who are
ready to help us at any point of time. Thank you to everybody who has
helped us up till now. To this day, we have had 10 National
Championships in our country. Almost all of the states are actively
participating in these Championships. They are conducted in different
places in India all the time and are a good experience for us. We get to
know many things about other places through fistball. Our Indian team
participated in the Asian Championships in 2014. We came second
aran Sethi, Manohar Gollamandala, Jagarapu Prasad, Hemesh Sanisetty,
Sachin Dasari, Prethwiraj Vadakumpuram (Coach), Kevin, Vivek Chintha,
Vijay Rohit. Foto gentileza federación internacional de faustball
It was a really good experience for us and
it was a great pleasure for us to meet Mr. Bernd Hoeckel. He’s a good
coach and also a good player. We enjoyed the training session he gave us
for a day. We are happy to have qualified for the World Cup which takes
place in Argentina! Argentina, we are eagerly waiting to visit you and
to participate in the competition. I hope there will be really tough
competition as it’s very tough out there, but we will try our best and
to the fistballers of different nations: All the best to you all and we
will meet soon.
And who is he?

Hello! I’m Vivek. I want to introduce myself to you and tell you about
my involvement in the sport fistball. I’m a football player and an
athlete. As there was a national championship for fistball and as I used
to play this as my recreation game I went to the nationals. Later on I
was selected for the Indian Fistball Team. I felt very happy to be part
of this. Now I’m 17. I started to play fistball when I was 14. I started
to love this sport and I feel very relieved while playing fistball. I’m
a defender on the right. That’s my position. I come from Andhra Pradesh
in India.
We have many players from India too. I
started as a runner in the National Championships and regarded my
studies highly. I’m studying engineering. And friends, yes I’m an
Indian. I even possess another nationality too and that is fistball and I
hope I’m one amongst the world of fistballers. I feel very happy about
this. Let’s develop fistball more all over the world. Even people in
Antarctica must talk about us and about this sport. I know cricket is
being centralised more but that’s not a big problem. My support is there
for you all the time. Finally I will tell you I don’t play handball. I
play fistball and I’m proud to proclaim it in the presence of you all.
