Pune, 16/04/2025 : SportsSkill, an innovative sports technology company, is entering 2025 with/ ambitious plans to transform the sports training landscape. The company is poised to leverage a new round of pre-seed investments from Waimea Bay Investments, represented by Kanarath P. Balaraj. SportsSkill is implementing an aggressive growth strategy focused on international expansion, advanced infrastructure, and innovative collaborations. Aiming to enter new global markets, SportsSkill is positioning itself as a key player in the future of sports training, inspiring others to push the boundaries of what is possible in the industry.
One of the key milestones for SportsSkill in 2025 will be its expansion into international markets by the second half of the year. This strategic move is about geographical reach and bringing a unique offering to athletes worldwide. The company’s advanced AI-powered sports training app, a pioneer in the industry, will provide athletes with data-driven insights and personalised coaching, setting a new standard in high-performance training. This expansion is a testament to SportsSkill’s commitment to making top-tier training accessible to athletes at all levels, transcending its current base in India.
At the forefront of this transformation is the unveiling of SportsSkill’s latest innovation—a state-of-the-art, high-performance gamified training center, the first of its kind. This unique facility seamlessly blends serious training with gamification, offering athletes an immersive experience that enhances fitness, hones technique, and builds competitive spirit—all in a fun, engaging environment. Designed to push limits while maintaining peak efficiency and measurable outcomes, the center marks a significant step in delivering real-world, hands-on training to complement the company’s robust digital ecosystem.
With its integrated approach that combines on-ground training innovation with digital intelligence, SportsSkill is well-positioned to become a key global player in the evolving sports training ecosystem.
“We are incredibly excited about what 2025 holds for SportsSkill,” said Chetan Desai, Co-Founder of SportsSkill. “The international expansion is just the beginning. Our new gamified center in Pune, collaborations with schools, and enhanced R&D efforts are all geared toward one goal: empowering athletes everywhere with the tools they need to perform at their best. This is a huge leap forward in our mission to transform the sports training world.”
Abhinav Sinha, Co-Founder of SportsSkill. “Having a highly experienced and established firm back us at this stage is a strong validation of our mission. Waimea Bay Investments lays a solid foundation for what we’re building at SportsSkill. This marks a significant step upward
as we prepare for our seed round later this year. We’re excited for the journey ahead and deeply grateful for the belief and support”
Alongside these physical expansions, SportsSkill is increasing its collaborations with schools across India. The company recognises the importance of grassroots development and aims to integrate its technology into schools, helping young athletes access advanced training tools from an early age. By bringing AI-driven sports training solutions into educational institutions, SportsSkill hopes to shape the future of sports in India by empowering the next generation of athletes.
In addition to these developments, SportsSkill will strongly emphasise research and development throughout 2025. The company’s plan to add more sports to its app, thereby broadening its appeal to a wider range of athletes, is a testament to its commitment to continuous improvement. Expanding the app’s capabilities will further cement SportsSkill’s position as a comprehensive platform for personalised training across multiple sports disciplines. Furthermore, the company’s shift to a B2B2C model in the second half of 2025 is a significant step that will enable closer collaborations with sports organisations, educational institutions, and businesses, paving the way for tailored training solutions and potential synergies.
