Sport will get the recognition it deserves: Olympian Arjun Babuta on Shooting League of India
New Delhi [India], June 16 (ANI): With the inaugural edition of the Shooting League of India just a few months away, Indian athletes eagerly look forward to the unique concept introduced by the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) to build on the sport's rising popularity and recent success. Indian shooters brought home three medals from the 2024 Paris Olympics, a testament to the country's growing depth in the sport. This momentum was further bolstered recently when Arjun Babuta and Arya Borse clinched the gold medal in the 10m Air Rifle Mixed Team event at the ISSF World Cup (Rifle/Pistol)--a significant achievement reflecting India's consistent excellence on the global stage. Olympian Arjun Babuta believes the league will add more momentum to the sport's upward trajectory and explained the athletes' enthusiasm for this format. 'Everyone has a lot of expectations, and all of our imaginations are working. In my opinion, we have not been as excited for any international tournament as we are for this league. I think an event like this will further facilitate the growth of the sport across various levels. The game will get the recognition it deserves. Now we are just waiting for the next steps, and how this moves forward,' the 26-year-old said, as quoted from a press release by SLI. Babuta, known for his composed mindset and work ethic, added, 'Definitely, if such a mindset can help motivate you to channelise your skills more positively, then it's good. But I am someone who believes in focusing on the task at hand, on my karma, so that whatever happens takes place because of my hard work. I don't approach anything with the expectation of a result. I enjoy shooting, so I stay focused on that; other variables do not affect my mindset, but if it helps someone else perform better, then why not?' While shooting is predominantly an individual sport, the franchise-based format will offer athletes the experience of competing in a team environment--an exciting challenge for many. Babuta, however, is no stranger to team-based competition, having represented SV Pfeil e.V. Vohringen in Germany's prestigious Bundesliga. 'I have participated in a team in Germany's Bundesliga league for shooting, and I am familiar with how that system operates. It is very exciting, and there are a lot of different and interesting challenges. It will be a very good experience, in my opinion, and everyone would also gain a new perspective. There is not a lot of pressure, and you can enjoy the game as well. You can make it entertaining for the viewers. So, a lot of growth is evident from this initiative led by NRAI,' the Punjab athlete said. The ISSF has allocated the window between 20 November and 2 December for the first season of the Shooting League of India. As approved by the NRAI Technical Committee, the tournament will feature mixed team events across pistol (10m, 25m), rifle (10m, 50m, 3 positions), and shotgun (Trap and Skeet). Babuta believes the league will help sharpen competitive skills and allow the public to connect more deeply with athletes as individuals. 'It would be nice if the public gets to understand better how the athletes work, beyond what they have seen in the movies. They could get a better grasp of their process, their struggles, and what motivates them. Once that takes place, people would also gain a perspective on how they can grow in their personal lives, how they can move past their own struggles. Everyone has their own individual challenges, but it's all about finding your own way to your preferred destination. So I think the league would help people, as all these different journeys are presented honestly,' he said. Athletes will be classified into four tiers--Elite Champions, World Elite, National Champions, and Junior & Youth Champions. Babuta feels the chance to share a dressing room with international stars will elevate the mindset and preparation of Indian athletes even further. 'Previously, I felt training with international shooters and seeing their mental tuning would help us better understand how we Indians can take the edge, as I felt we were always there technically, but we could do better in terms of our mental aspects. Now we are one of the best in the world, and now if we play on the same team as them, more ideas will be exchanged among us, and we could all evaluate where we can improve,' he said. 'For those who are not avid watchers of shooting as a sport, it would also help them gain a better understanding of the game. They would get a better perspective of who athletes are, what their thought processes and philosophies are. It would be a great vantage point for the viewers,' Babuta signed off. (ANI)

Carlos Alcaraz's huge Trent Alexander-Arnold verdict ahead of Real Madrid's Club World Cup opener; ‘pretty sure he's…'
Tennis star and a Real Madrid super fan Carlos Alcaraz made a massive statement on Trent Alexander-Arnold after the Englishman made a move to the La Liga giants recently ahead of the ongoing FIFA Club World Cup 2025 in the United States. Under new manager Xabi Alonso, Alexander-Arnold could be handed a potential Real Madrid debut on June 19 against Saudi Arabian powerhouse Al-Hilal. Alexander-Arnold, who graduated at Liverpool academy before spending a considerable time with the senior team, recently lifted the English Premier League. However, the right-back opted to run down his contract with Liverpool and join Real Madrid. 'It's great having him at Real Madrid,' Alcaraz was quoted as saying to BBC Sport. 'I'm pretty sure he's going to be the best (right back in the world)!' Alcaraz, who recently clinched the French Open men's singles title, also spoke highly of Alexander-Arnold for his Spanish. "If I meet him one day, I will speak with him in Spanish. His Spanish is pretty, pretty good. It surprised me when I heard it. It's not easy when you are standing in front of a new club, new president, new teammate, new everyone. Speaking another language and being able to do it like this, respect to him," added the 22-year-old.

European giants cruise in Club World Cup
New York, June 16 (UNI) European giants took center stage at the FIFA Club World Cup as Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain cruised to emphatic opening wins. Elsewhere, Botafogo earned a narrow victory over Seattle Sounders while Palmeiras and Porto settled for a goalless draw. In Group C, attacking midfielder Jamal Musiala netted a second-half hat-trick as Bayern Munich romped to a 10-0 victory over semi-professional Auckland City on Sunday. Kingsley Coman and Michael Olise struck two goals each while Sacha Boey and Thomas Muller were also on the scoresheet as the German side raced to a 6-0 lead at halftime at TQL Stadium in Cincinnati. Musiala, a 61st-minute substitute for Harry Kane, then struck three times in 17 minutes before veteran Muller doubled his personal tally a minute from time. The New Zealand outfit could manage only one shot on target and controlled just 28% of possession against the current Bundesliga champions. Bayern's win is the biggest in the history of the Club World Cup, surpassing Al-Hilal's 6-1 victory over Al Jazira in 2021. "Job done. We played very seriously and did what we had to do," Bayern manager Vincent Kompany told a post-match news conference. "Perhaps goal difference is also important in this group. When a team sits deep and defends well, it's not a given that they'll score 10 goals. And that's why we couldn't do much more today." Auckland City manager Ivan Vicelich said he could not fault his players, some of whom had to take unpaid leave from their jobs to take part in the tournament. "This is the reality of football against one of the world's top teams," Vicelich said. "It is a dream for players coming from an amateur level to play in this environment. We knew it was going to be a very difficult game, playing against one of the top teams in the world, potentially one of the favorites for the Club World Cup, so we are just really proud of the players' efforts." In Group B, newly crowned European champions Paris Saint-Germain scored twice in each half to cruise to a 4-0 victory over Atletico Madrid in front of more than 80,000 fans at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California. Fabian Ruiz and Vitinha struck first-half goals for the French side and Atletico suffered another blow when Clement Lenglet was sent off for a second yellow card 12 minutes from time. Teenager Senny Mayulu and Lee Kang-in capitalized on Paris Saint-Germain's numerical advantage with late goals as the Parisians lived up to their billing as one of the title favorites. "We had the objective of making history this season, but this [the Club World Cup] is a new chapter," PSG manager Luis Enrique told reporters after the match. "It's a nice challenge for the players and the team, to want to keep winning." Brazil's Palmeiras and Portuguese side Porto played out a goalless draw in their Group A clash at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium. Led in attack by Chelsea-bound teenager Estevao, Palmeiras looked the more dangerous side but could not find a way past Porto goalkeeper Claudio Ramos, who made a series of fine saves. "We managed to create a lot of chances with our pressure but we weren't able to score the goal we deserved - that's football," Palmeiras manager Abel Ferreira said afterwards. In Sunday's other Group B duel, reigning Brazilian Serie A champions Botafogo secured a 2-1 victory over MLS club Seattle Sounders. Headers from Jair and Igor Jesus gave Botafogo a 2-0 lead at halftime before Cristian Roldan reduced the deficit when his flicked effort deflected in off Jesus' shoulder. Buoyed by their home fans at Lumen Field, Seattle grew in stature in the last 20 minutes but lacked incisiveness in the final third. "We didn't play well but we got the result that we wanted and that's the most important thing," Botafogo captain Marlon Freitas said. "We were a little nervous, but we know we can improve. Now we can rest and prepare for a difficult match against Paris Saint-Germain on Thursday." UNI/XINHUA BM
