Vision and Goals

He aims to introduce combat sports in every school across Uttarakhand so that youth become not only physically strong but also mentally resilient. For him, sports are about discipline, character, and the strength to face life’s challenges.
Through boxing events in schools and grassroots programs, Arun plans to empower children to break barriers—be it mental toughness, self-confidence, or gender stereotypes—helping them become stronger individuals in every aspect of life.
His dream is to create a new sports federation in Uttarakhand that will raise the region’s athletes to global recognition, on par with top sporting nations. He believes sports have the power to transform society, uplift communities, and inspire a new generation of champions.
With dedication and hard work, Arun Sharma is determined to bring a new era to Indian boxing—where Uttarakhand stands tall as a powerhouse of combat sports. He emphasizes that his core motive is to propel Uttarakhand ahead in fitness and sports.
He uses his platforms—personal accounts, Fighter Fitness Club, and The Uppercut Boxing Promotion—to share his vision and build a strong community of athletes. His goal is to form a sports committee where athletes from Dehradun, Uttarakhand, and across India unite to shape the future of sports.
