A futsal player from Dharampur received a felicitation ceremony following his triumph in an international competition.
Dharampur's own futsal representative was formally felicitated by local officials on Saturday after clinching a title at an international tournament. The ceremony, held at the town's municipal hall, saw the player receive a citation and a modest cash award in recognition of his achievement.
The accolade highlights the growing stature of futsal in India, a sport that has been gaining traction among youth for its fast‑paced, skill‑intensive format. The player's victory abroad marks one of the few instances where a representative from a small town has made a mark on the global futsal stage.
Local authorities praised the athlete's dedication and urged other youngsters to take up the sport, promising better infrastructure and coaching support in the region. The felicitation underscores the community's pride in seeing a homegrown talent succeed internationally.
