FLUTTER ENTERTAINMENT INDIA LLP (FEI), the Hyderabad-based centre of excellence for global sports entertainment operator Flutter, has announced a partnership with the Aditya Mehta Foundation (AMF) to strengthen India’s para-sports ecosystem and advance their shared commitment to community empowerment through sport.
As part of the collaboration, FEI has committed Rs 60 lakh to support two key AMF programs: upgrading the Training and Rehabilitation Centre/Adaptive Gym, including nutrition and coaching support, and funding customised adaptive devices and equipment. Together, these initiatives are expected to directly benefit up to 15 para-athletes as they prepare for major competitions, including the Asian Youth Para Games and the 2028 Paralympic Games.
Founded in 2013, AMF is Asia’s first organisation dedicated solely to para-sports rehabilitation and high-performance training. Its work has played a crucial role in nurturing grassroots talent and transforming them into world-class athletes, contributing to over 450 international medals for India. Through this partnership, FEI aims to accelerate AMF’s impact and provide para-athletes with the infrastructure and support required to excel at the highest level, per the release.
The two major programs are:
Program 1: Training, Rehabilitation Centre/Adaptive Gym Upgradation, Nutrition & Coaching and National & International Competitions – FEI’s contribution will help AMF enhance its training environment with upgraded adaptive facilities, sports science support, physiotherapy, and structured nutrition plans. The investment aligns with Flutter’s wider vision of enabling inclusive, safe, and high-quality sporting ecosystems where athletes can thrive.
Program 2: Customized Adaptive Devices & Equipment – Recognising that elite performance demands specialised tools, FEI will fund the development of customised adaptive devices and sport-specific equipment. This will ensure para-athletes have the precision, accessibility, and safety required to perform and train at an elite level.
AMF international para-cyclist and founder, Aditya Mehta, said, “We are delighted to partner with Flutter, whose support will significantly strengthen India’s para-sports ecosystem. Para-athletes require specialized training, rehabilitation and adaptive equipment, and this investment will directly help them access these essential resources. The collaboration will enable athletes to compete in key national and international tournaments, including World Championships and World Cups, which are crucial for earning qualification points. This support aligns with our shared vision of securing multiple slots for the 2028 Paralympics and elevating talented para-athletes to the highest levels of global competition.”
FEI managing director, Ashish Sinha, added, “Para-athletes represent resilience, ambition, and the belief that sport should be accessible to everyone. Our partnership with the Aditya Mehta Foundation reflects Flutter’s long-term commitment to creating high-quality training ecosystems that enable athletes to perform at their best. By strengthening access to adaptive equipment, sports science, and professional coaching, we aim to support para-athletes in achieving their full potential and competing with confidence on the global stage.”
