Sports is an area where women and girls exercise their individuality on their [own] behalf. They decide how to move … They have to decide and act at the same time. And doing sports over and over again on their own behalf, by themselves, instills a level of confidence … What really has been a part of my experience is sports as an empowerment activity for females—for girls particularly in the context of India.
