How a father’s sacrifice built India’s Asian Boxing champion

How a father’s sacrifice built India’s Asian Boxing champion

Published by Webster

In a small tailoring shop somewhere in Tamil Nadu, Suresh Babu sits bent over a sewing machine well past midnight. His son is at a boxing camp hundreds of kilometres away, preparing for the Asian Championship. The father will not sleep tonight. He never does on the nights before a big bout. This is not a new arrangement. It has been the rhythm of their lives for over a decade, the father cutting cloth by day and dreaming of a gold medal by night, the son throwing punches at dawn and carrying a weight far heavier than his 52 kg frame suggests. That son is Vishvanath Suresh, 22, boxer, Army Sports Institute (ASI) Pune, and now Asian Boxing Championship gold medallist. The man at the sewing machine is his father, a former state-level boxer who once had offers from the Southern Railway and the Army, and turned them both down because his family needed him more than boxing did. “He wouldn’t sleep thinking about my training all night. Sometimes home by 11, sometimes 1 am. …

Son of tailor from Banda in UP, Arsh Mohammad fulfills father’s badminton dream becoming newest national doubles champion | Badminton News

Son of tailor from Banda in UP, Arsh Mohammad fulfills father’s badminton dream becoming newest national doubles champion | Badminton News

Published by Webster

Arsh Mohammad, 19, who emerged National doubles champion, was born in one of India’s most under-developed regions, Banda in Uttar Pradesh. The municipality of Bundelkhand receives special grants reserved for ‘backward’ regions. His father Ashfaq Ahmed runs a tailoring shop stitching bespoke suits called ‘New Fashion tailors’. Ashfaq always nursed his passion for badminton, and eventually packed off his son to train in the sport. Amidst the unchanging, perpetual ambient sound of the ticking of the sewing machine needle, the whirring of the pulley wheel and the monotonous tapping of the foot pedal, Ashfaq’s cherished distraction was badminton – for fitness and recreation. Beautifully cut, crisply ironed three-piece suits would line the shelves, even as the young Arsh took a liking for the fast pace and hand-speed of doubles shuttle. An U13 title at Tezpur in Assam, and stagnant singles results, would help him make up his mind about choosing doubles. “Interest in singles dipped, and my coach Anwar Ali in Banda and my father whole heartedly supported my decision even before I turned 15 …
