This will be JSW Steel TT Academy’s third year in a row, as  they will be conducting  the event in this rural part of the state.  They have around 40 trainees under their wing, who are looked after very well for their coaching needs, nutrition, playing equipment, tournament expenses, lodging, boarding etc. to prepare them  for the national and other higher level  tournaments. International level TT players have trained them. So, it will be interesting to see these players compete with other players from Thane district.
