LEGAXY, a sports management and entertainment company, along with Indian athletes Harshit Rana, Yuzvendra Chahal, Ishant Sharma, Umesh Yadav, Puja Tomar, Neetu Chandra Srivastava and Pratima Singh launched LegaXy Sports Academy, a school-centric initiative aimed at strengthening structured sports education by combining athletic development with academic rigour.
The academy will work in close collaboration with schools, delivering structured in-school, after-school and specialised training programmes. Its model places emphasis on technical fundamentals, physical conditioning and mindset development, while ensuring students remain fully committed to their academic journey.
Built around a scientific long-term athlete development framework, the academy will initially cover eight disciplines: cricket, football, basketball, table tennis, badminton, swimming, taekwondo and martial arts.
In addition to access to professional mentors and experienced coaches, the programme prioritises early talent identification and clearly defined progression pathways, enabling young athletes to pursue sport without compromising their studies.
LegaXy co-founder and director of talent Aneesh Gautam said, “Over the years, our work across the sports ecosystem has highlighted a strong opportunity to strengthen sports education at the school level. Too often, young athletes navigate their formative years without clear pathways or long-term guidance. LegaXy Sports Academy has been created to bring clarity, professional systems, and athlete-led mentorship into early-stage development, without forcing children to choose between sport and studies. Our focus is on building sustainable talent pipelines, where young athletes receive the right guidance, exposure, and performance support from the very beginning.”
