00:27In the Marumula region, there is a lack of interest in games.
00:30There is a feeling that games will make you hungry, and that games will make you want to play.
00:34In addition to this, due to financial problems, parents are unable to encourage their children to play games.
00:40But this Krida Kusumalu did not feel any obstacle.
00:44Along with studying, they are showing their talent in games and are setting a new path for the future.

02:22Due to playing sports, I scored good marks in 10th standard and got 380 seats.
02:26With 380 seats, I can study for 6 years for free.
02:29I started playing since 7th standard.
02:32I have been playing since 8.30 in the morning and 5 in the evening.
02:37The rest of the time, I have been studying.
02:40I have been playing softball since the last 3 years.
02:43I have played in 3 nationals.
02:46I have to play in one of them.
02:48I have to play in senior nationals.
02:50I have played in South zone senior nationals.
02:51I have played in 117 South zone nationals.
02:54I have to play in 4 nationals.
02:57First, I have played in junior nationals.
02:59Then I played in 117 nationals.
03:02Again, I have to play in South zone nationals.
03:05I have to play in senior nationals also.
03:07I come to school at 6 in the morning.
03:08It gets over by 8.
03:09Again, I have classes at 9 in the morning and 5 in the evening.
03:15I play from 6 to 5.30 or 6.
03:19The softball games require a lot of bat, ball and other sports equipment.
03:28The school administration and the villagers are supporting them.
03:34These softball players are practicing every day with the encouragement of Subba Rao.
03:43I am a catcher.
03:45A catcher is a player who catches the ball.
03:50They play batting in between.
03:52This is a baseball and cricket type game.
03:55This game requires a lot of material.
03:59That is why we don't know much about this game.
04:01Sluggers, balls and gloves are expensive.
04:05That is why many people don't like to play this game.
04:09But in those times, our game sir spent a lot of money to make us play this game.
04:15No one in the village knows about me.
04:17Now that I play the game, I am selected for the state.
04:20My mother plays the game very well.
04:22I am selected for the state.
04:23My parents talk very well about my school.
04:25My parents feel very happy about me.
04:28To send a girl out of the game, the parents don't agree.
04:32Boys are sent out easily.
04:34Girls are sent out.
04:35But my family supported me and sent me out.
04:38Subbarao says that the importance of softball is increasing in the caste system.
04:44That is why he encourages the students.
04:47He says that the students are happy to play this game.
04:52There are 66 games in our SCF.
04:55Today, softball is being played in these 66 games.
04:57Why?
04:59In our district softball association,
05:01in the state softball association,

05:07In the national softball association,
05:09players are selected.
