The event served as a prestigious platform, bringing together leading personalities from the sports and media industries. The Indian Roll Ball League, hailed as India’s own creation, uniquely combines the speed of skating with the dynamics of basketball and handball. First invented in Pune in 2003, the sport has quickly gained international popularity and is now played in more than 50 countries, with official recognition and support from the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports, Government of India.

Former Cricketer Madan Lal and Roland Butcher applaud the new sport.

Ronald Butcher remarked, “Roll Ball is a thrilling game and deserves greater promotion—it will be amazing to watch.”

Sudhir Gautam added, “The launch of this Indian sport is a great step; it’s truly an exciting game.”

The Arab Asia Cricket League (AACL) has partnered with Cricketaa to promote school-level cricket in the Arab region, with a strong focus on women’s participation. This initiative emphasizes cross-cultural exchange between India, the UAE, and other Asian nations while promoting equal opportunities in sports. Along with cricket, the platform also supports seven other major sports, encouraging youth involvement and women’s empowerment. Backed by leaders and institutions, the vision is to expand globally, strengthen India–UAE ties, and make women’s cricket a global movement starting from the UAE.
