New Delhi, May 31 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Sports Authority of India (SAI) is set to launch Khelo India e-Pathshala in association with National Sports Federations on June 1.

"In its second phase, scheduled to start soon, the programme will reach out to development-level athletes as well," it said.
"The massive online session is being launched with the aim of educating young athletes who have not been able to train in their academies in the past few weeks due to the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic.

The programme will also be lead by a committee of eminent coaches and observed by a committee of Sports Scientist, High-Performance Directors and High-Performance Managers, who will give their on-ground feedback about the course," it further stated.
