Former Indian skipper, MS Dhoni is all set to launch his cricket academy at Singapore. The academy will be launched on January 20, 2018, at the St. Patrick’s School in Singapore. It will be the second one for the veteran cricketer outside India. The curriculum of the academy has been designed by Dhoni himself.

The first academy was set up in Dubai last year and this time MS is set to work with Singapore women’s team captain G.K. Diviya and Singapore men’s players Chetan Suryavanshi and Chaminda Ruwan.

As quoted in Straitstimes, MS Dhoni had recently stressed on the importance of sports. Interestingly, Dhoni is working with Academia7, the franchise holder for the academy in 13 nations, and sports management company Aarka Sports to establish up to 12 other academies in the Asian continent.

Talking about the academies, Mahi said, “Sports should be an essential driver for the development of a child’s character. Apart from being fit, you can learn leadership and other important aspects of life via sports. Every kid should play an outdoor sport. MS Dhoni Cricket Academy is not only about producing cricket talent, but our academy’s vision is to guide a kid to become a champion in life via sports.”

In order to meet Dhoni, the fans and the participants of the academy will need to fill out the registrations available on the official website of the academy. The registrations can be found under the “In Conversation with MS Dhoni” tab on the website.

At the Singapore academy, over 200 students have already registered themselves. The academy is open to everyone over the age of 6 years. There are corporate packages available as well.
