A para badminton champion - aiming to represent India in 2020 Olympics
Current world ranking: 16 in Singles, 25 in Doubles and 58 in Mixed
I am Sugil Abbas, a 27 years old para badminton player. I hail from a lower middle class family in Erode, Tamilnadu, India. With the support of well wishers, I am undergoing badminton coaching in Gopichand's academy in Hyderabad.
My ambition is to win medal for India in the Olympics. My current world ranking (Singles 16) needs to be maintained to be eligible for the 2020 Olympics. To retain the ranking, I need to play at least 7 international tournaments (out of 13 mentioned at the end of this page) before the Olympics. I am looking for financial support for the travel, food and accommodation expenses.
If you would like to donate, kindly email helpsugil@gmail.com or call/whatsapp me at 9790043786. I'll share the relevant official documents. Wherever applicable, the money can directly be transferred to hotel / travel agent etc.
Thank you very much!
