It starts in a cupboard.
A bat that has been outgrown, a racket from a phase that passed, or a ball nobody kicks any more gets a chance to play again.
Athleturn is a community sports NGO in Hyderabad. We collect used sports equipment, arrange repairs where possible, and pass safe, game-ready gear to schools and young people.

GOOD GEAR, READY FOR ANOTHER GOA good bat can sit unused at home while a school team shares one. We move useful gear to the people ready to put it to work, and keep good equipment in the game for longer.
Meet AthleturnA bat that has been outgrown, a racket from a phase that passed, or a ball nobody kicks any more gets a chance to play again.
We look at condition and safety first. Anything that cannot be made safe is set aside, so only useful gear moves forward.
When a repair is needed, local sports shops lend their craft. A new grip, a tightened string, a stitched seam: small fixes can make a big difference.
Safe, ready-to-use equipment is passed on to government schools and academies, where young players are waiting for a chance to get in the game.

A spare bat, a school team, a helping hand. Every next innings starts with someone like you.
