to meet him some day in future
Y Rafael Nadal ??Champions of fighter and not
losing hope till the very last point
I have tried and even inculcated his attitude towards his game in my life in every sphere and it really works
Only champion in the world to break the autonomy of tennis great Federer with his aggressive tennis
Former World No 1 and still able to accept defeat with same humbleness as he wins grand slams
M I Passionate enuf??
If given proper training - want to pursue tennis as my career
Playing tennis gives me a kind of peculiar feeling which is unrealizable in any other situation
Can play tennis day and night if I have nothing else to do
Imitate Rafa on court many times when I used to play tennis
Feels like to relinquish everything and pursue career in tennis
Happiness and satisfaction heights which I get after playing tennis is what I have never experienced
Any Experience ???
Yesss……In Engineering – No time and No
scope of playingIn job – tennis court was built in
township after 18 monthsPlayed in township for 2 months at
night without coachVery skillful game – could not play
a single shot but still my passion was enough to take me to play every night
Photos taken are of my township only at night
Used to work till 20 hrs and then from 22 hrs to 2 hrs played tennis
Resigned from job early so that I can get some time to get training in tennis before joining IIFT
I got 2 months before joining IIFT to pursue my passion and I did
Joined the best coaching in ahmedabad for 2 months and used to play tennis 3 hrs everyday
Gave extra money for personal coaching to grasp the game early
In these 2 months only – I realized satisfaction and happiness most important for anybody
I used to get that feeling after 3hrs of playing tennis
My mood used to be cheerful and I could work efficiently in other fields
Played a state level tournament too in these 2 months in which I was out in the 1st round but wanted to experience the real tennis player in me – awesome experience
1.5 Lakhs Enough??Definitely….Taking training from the best coaching institute in ahmedabad for 10
months = Rs 2250 * 10 = Rs 22,500Purchasing good raquet = Rs 10,000I have my home in ahmedabad so no expenditure on stayingOther expenditure per month in ahmedabad = Rs 1000*10 = Rs 10,000To and Fro flight expenditure to spain = Rs 47,500Staying in Manacor for a week( Hometown of Rafel Nadal) including
food and staying expense = Rs 30,000Total Expenditure = Rs 1,20,000Suppose if the finance budget stretches then rest Rs 30,000 will act as

Testimonials…..
Shashank Mangal is a bit more than a normal Tennis fan. Oddities, weirdities, hyperactiveness, Impatience...one would probably find all shades of life while shashank watches and plays Tennis. As a cynical fan, for him there are only two players in TENNIS that he knows of.. Rafal Nadal... and....others
