Arati Ponnappa Natekar, Director
Here’s a refined, professional rewording:
Arati, a national lawn tennis player, was born into a family deeply rooted in sports and has emerged as one of India’s prominent sports ambassadors. Her father, P.C. Ponnappa, won a silver medal in the 4 × 400 m relay, while her mother, Nirmala Uthaiah, held national titles in the 100, 200, and 400 m events and maintained the national 100 m record for over a decade.
Arati says, “Sport teaches resilience, purpose, and confidence, and I want more people to experience its impact. I’m committed to building an inclusive, healthy, and sustainable sports ecosystem—one where athletes, coaches, and families can grow and thrive together through the programs we create.”
Gaurav Nandukumar Natekar, Director
Here’s a clean, professional rewording:
The son of Indian badminton legend Nandu Natekar, Gaurav is a former tennis player who achieved the No. 1 ranking in India and won the national singles title across all junior age categories, along with an international U-18 title. His legacy, sporting journey, and professional experience bring both an athlete’s and a sports manager’s insight, enabling him to create exceptional value.
As Gaurav says, “Sport has shaped who I am, and I believe deeply in its power to inspire and uplift communities. My commitment is to help build a holistic, sustainable sports ecosystem—one that nurtures talent, supports every stakeholder, and creates long-term pathways for growth through our initiatives.”
Through strategic guidance and responsible governance, the leadership ensures that NSG remains agile, impactful, and aligned with evolving industry standards.
