DoIT Sports Management India has
unveiled the team jersey of Dabang Mumbai, the
Mumbai franchise of Hockey India League (HIL),
at their home ground Mahindra Hockey Stadium.
The third edition of the league will be held
across the country from 22 January to 22
February.

DoIT has pioneered ‘Rurban’ sports development
in India. To inculcate sporting culture in the
country, the sporting venture aims to improve
sports infrastructure at grass-roots levels in
urban and rural India alike.

The main objective of the Dabang Mumbai
venture is to win hearts of hockey lovers and to
promote sports talent and contribute towards the
development of sports across the country.

The jersey, unveiled by Dabang Mumbai star
player Tom Boon and strategic advisor and team
mentor Viren Rasquinha, represents the vibrant
and fighting spirit of the state of Maharashtra
and as a symbol highlighting the uninhibited
ambition of the franchise to compete to win.

Speaking about the initiative, DoIT Sports
Management director Radha Kapoor said,
“Dabang Mumbai is the second sports venture of
our company after Pro-Kabaddi team Dabang
Delhi and we are extremely excited to welcome
our star player Tom Boon as he unveils the
Dabang Mumbai outfit. The Mumbai franchise
helps us take forward our vision to contribute to
the development of sports and groom a steady
pool of young, talented players for the Indian
National Team.”

Speaking on the occasion, Boon, who became
the highest-ever paid player in the league after
being bought for a whopping $103,000 by Dabang
Mumbai, said: “I have got a wonderful response
from the Indian public in the last couple of
weeks during the Champions Trophy. I am
equally excited to be in Mumbai where I will
make my debut for HIL 2015. I realise the
expectations and responsibility on my shoulders
and I am determined to give my best for Dabang
Mumbai in the coming Hockey India League.”
