FEDERATION CUP 2026 FINAL DAY

We are pleased to inform you that, with your invaluable support and blessings, we have successfully concluded the Federation Cup 2026 in Jodhpur.

The championship was conducted in a remarkably cordial and cheerful atmosphere. As previously communicated, we received entries from 11 states, covering 21 days of competition.

Notably, all matches in the senior category were played in a highly friendly and pleasant environment.

One of the most remarkable aspects of this championship was that the organizers did not encounter a single protest or complaint throughout the event.

**NADA team was present at the championship and completed their task as per their regular established practice.**

*Another significant achievement was the vital role played by Mr. Ramesh Kumar, President of the Visakhapatnam Roller Skating Association—as a devoted sports enthusiast and administrator—along with dedicated sports-loving parents, including Mr. Anil Singh and Mr. Phani Kumar, who are wholly committed to the development of sports and athletes. Together, they stood firmly against the forces working against the progress of sports in Andhra Pradesh. Their collective efforts defeated those regressive elements and successfully secured the rightful opportunities for the state’s hardworking players.*

*Had Mr. Ramesh Kumar and these concerned parents not taken a strong stand in favour of the players, the year-long hard work of Andhra Pradesh’s athletes would have been undone by the flawed, oppressive, and dictatorial policies of the Andhra Pradesh Roller Skating Association (APRSA). By putting an end to these damaging practices, the parents ensured the entry of the Andhra Pradesh team. The players then proved the worth of that stand by winning the silver medal in the senior category—demonstrating that evil cannot endure forever, and that truth ultimately triumphs.*

This victory by the Andhra Pradesh Inline Hockey team has ignited a fresh wave of enthusiasm and passion, propelling roller skating forward on a path of progress across the state.

Furthermore, all other participating teams from states and union territories—including Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Karnataka, and others—delivered excellent performances.

At the closing ceremony and prize distribution, the medal ceremony was graced by *Mr. Poonam Singh Shekhawat, President of the District Olympic Association, and Mr. Prithviraj Singh Jodha, Senior Advocate at the Rajasthan High Court.* They honoured the winning players by presenting medals and trophies.

We are attaching the media coverage, results, and photographs of the competition along with this email.

Thank you for your continued support.
