Where Sustainability Meets Speed: Gallant Sports Powers India’s Next Generation of Athletes
In a nation where sporting dreams take root in dusty playgrounds and school courtyards, Gallant Sports India stands as the architect of transformation—turning potential into performance, sustainability into strength, and accessibility into achievement. This September marks a pivotal moment in India’s sports infrastructure evolution, where two ground breaking partnerships showcase how the right foundation can elevate an entire sporting ecosystem.
Rewriting the Future of Sports Infrastructure: Gallant Sports Becomes India’s First Nike Grind™ Licensee
In a historic move for India’s sports and sustainability landscape, Gallant Sports has been onboarded as India’s First Licensee of Nike Grind™, a global sustainability initiative by Nike, Inc. This ground breaking partnership has led to the launch of Gallant Bounce™, India’s first-ever sustainable turf infill made with minimum 20% of Nike Grind™ rubber.
Gallant Bounce™ transforms footwear manufacturing scrap into high-performance surfaces, turning waste into world-class sports infrastructure. Designed for extreme Indian weather conditions, heavy footfall, and multi-sport versatility, this innovative product offers high shock absorption for injury prevention and superior longevity. The sustainable infill supports LEED credits and aligns with CSR and green building mandates, making it perfect for institutions focused on eco-leadership.
“Gallant Bounce™ is more than a product, it’s a statement that India is ready to rise sustainably, one field at a time,” said Nasir Ali , Founder & CEO, Gallant Sports & Infra. “This is our 6AM sunrise moment for sports in India.”
Gallant Sports Partners with Dream Dash to Support Young Athletes by Providing World-Class Infrastructure
Gallant Sports has joined Dream Dash, a first-of-its-kind multi-city sprinting competition for school children, as its official Infrastructure Partner. Conceptualized by KPMG in India and presented by DreamSetGo , this initiative puts grassroots sprinting on the national stage with Olympic legend Usain Bolt attending the grand finale as Guest of Honour.
As part of the partnership, Gallant Sports designed and prepared running tracks and competition surfaces at all Dream Dash venues, ensuring that facilities meet international standards. The competition witnessed children from Grades 3 to 9 compete in 100m and 200m races, with the fastest sprinters qualifying for the grand finale in Mumbai and Delhi.
“Sports dreams are born on the right grounds,” said Nasir Ali, Founder & CEO, Gallant Sports & Infra. “Our association with Dream Dash gives us the opportunity to support young sprinters with the infrastructure they need to pursue their ambitions.”
