#NationalSportsDay in India commemorates the birthday of Major Dhyan Chand, one of the finest sportspersons the country has ever produced.

Back in those days, the Beighton Cup was the ultimate achievement for hockey players and Dhyan Chand said it was his "life's ambition" to win the coveted trophy for his home team Jhansi Heroes.
In his autobiography 'Goal', Dhyan Chand noted that the 1933 Beighton Cup final against Calcutta Customs was the best match he ever played. In a keenly contested affair, the Jhansi team won by a solitary goal scored by the wizard himself.

Althea Gibson was born into a family of sharecroppers. The Great Depression hit the family hard and in 1930, they moved to Harlem. The city had blocked off some streets to traffic. The area was barricaded so that neighbourhood children could play sports.
In the 20th century, with American cities getting overcrowded thanks to a wave of migration, paddle tennis quickly caught on. It was played on a court that was half the size of a regulation tennis court. During a summer, Althea Gibson learnt the game and quickly excelled at it.
