Chandigarh, 4 December 2025 – TIDA Sports, a Chandigarh‑based multi‑sports training and coaching platform, has raised ₹3 crore in seed funding led by Inflection Point Ventures (IPV). The investment will fuel the company’s expansion into five states and 30 cities, enabling partnerships with 200 schools and bringing structured sports training to over one lakh students.

Building India’s Largest School‑Integrated Sports Network
TIDA Sports partners with schools and collaborates with local sports academies to make professional coaching, quality venues, and competitive tournaments accessible to young athletes. The company has already worked with leading institutions such as GD Goenka, DPS, DAV, and Aravali, enhancing their sports programs with structured training modules.
To date, TIDA Sports has:
- Organised 100+ tournaments across multiple sports
- Trained athletes who have competed at national and state levels
- Built 150+ academies across Uttarakhand, Punjab, and Haryana
- Been recognised by My FM and Times Power Icon for contributions to sports tech
Ankur Mittal, Co‑founder, Inflection Point Ventures, said: “India’s sports ecosystem remains fragmented, with limited access to quality coaching, infrastructure, and even basic equipment. Many talented students drop out early, especially when academics take priority at home.
TIDA Sports is bridging this gap by making quality training, venues, and tournaments accessible at the grassroots level. Sports is not just about creating champions — it builds discipline, confidence, and healthier lifestyles. TIDA ensures sports work for students rather than against their potential.”
TIDA Sports currently operates across Uttarakhand, Punjab, and Haryana, with training centres in Rishikesh, Haridwar, Dehradun, Chandigarh tricity, Patiala, Jalandhar, Ambala, Amritsar, Ludhiana, and Ferozepur. With a rapidly growing student base, the company is now preparing to enter major Indian cities to build a nationwide grassroots sports development network.
Adit Goel, CEO, TIDA Sports, said: “The grassroots sports sector needed a reset, and TIDA Sports is leading that change. Our mission is to bring professional coaching, structured programs, and vibrant sports environments to every school in India. With this funding, we are on track to impact 10 million young athletes over the next five years and help create a generation that grows up active, confident, and future‑ready.”
- India’s sports industry is projected to grow from USD 52 billion to USD 130 billion by 2030.
- The global sports tech market is expected to triple to USD 61.7 billion by 2030.
- With India’s youth population expanding, demand for structured sports development is accelerating across Tier 1, 2, and 3 cities.
TIDA Sports is positioned to capture this opportunity with its multi‑sport, school‑integrated, tech‑enabled model.
