Asian Games: Young Midfielder Vaishnavi Living Her Father's Dream On Hockey Field
Vaishnavi's father, Vitthal Phalke, is a farmer who was once a wrestler and participated in Kersari Kusthi, a regional wrestling competition in Maharashtra. His dream of winning the competition went unfulfilled, but his passion for sports lives on through his daughter.
“My father was a wrestler when he was young but he couldn’t make it to the big leagues so he invested in me and hoped I would play for the country. He sent me to Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex Balewadi, Pune in 2011 to pursue sports and after trying my hand at several games I decided to take up hockey,” she said recounting her first steps as a hockey player.
