New Delhi, September 06, 2022: Octa, a global educational platform focused on investments, recently sponsored the Kho Kho team Telugu Yoddhas playing in the first-ever professional Kho Kho league called Ultimate Kho Kho. The inaugural season, held between August 14 and September 4, greatly contributed to the revival of the traditional Indian sport and introduced it to the wider public.

It also served as a bridge between rural and urban areas of India.
‘Kho Kho is one of the oldest indigenous games that Indian youth play in numerous districts and states of the country. We love it for cultivating agility and smart decision-making, which are also very important in investing. That is why we decided to support the revival of this exciting sport as a part of the Ultimate Kho Kho league and started sponsoring the team ‘Telugu Yoddhas’ that played in it,’ the Octa press office commented.
Sujoy Ganguly, Business and Marketing Head at GMR Sports, the Telugu Yoddhas’ franchisor, shared his take on the sponsorship: ‘Kho Kho is an emerging professional sport that provides a window of opportunity for young talents across the country.
