Leander Sport signs Aditya Patel into its fold

Coimbatore: As a continuation of the company’s long term commitment to promote motor sport in India, Leander Sport Private Limited, on Wednesday, officially announced the signing on of upcoming talent Aditya Patel.

The sports management company, promoted by Leander Paes, has recently roped in A1 GP World champion Neel Jani into its fold.

“Aditya represents in many ways the future of India’s young motor sport talent — daring to take many ways forward in his career and to challenge the traditional and otherwise, only way to have ‘arrived’ in motor sport. It is his outstanding performance and his personal dedication that makes him an attractive athlete to Leander Sport,” said company’s director Ara Pararajasingham.

The Chennai-based Patel said: “I’ve grown up watching Leander Paes storm the tennis courts of the world creating iconic status as an Indian sportsperson.

“It has been my dream to be able to represent the country on the global scene and it seems I’m getting there slowly, thanks to the help of my sponsors and supporters in –JK Tyre, VW India, Amaron, AJ Worldwide, MAS Holdings (Sri Lanka) and TTS (Germany). Now with Leander Sport agreeing to sign me on, I am even more hopeful about my future.”
