The digital networking platform in India is growing and diversifying at an exponential rate as niche offerings emerge with an aim at revolutionizing the way we connect. One such example is the Indian Regional League, a Basketball and Volleyball tournament initiated by Indiakhelo.com (a website dedicated to promoting sports at the grass root level) in conjunction with Commonfloor.com (an online apartment community for India).

The tournament focuses on bringing together 150 teams from 35 colleges, 35 schools and 20 apartment complexes in Bengaluru with an aim to propagate Basketball and Volleyball. In the larger scheme of things; the Indian Regional League aims to cover over 20 cities in India, eventually forming a sports ranking system for serious school and college level participants. Prashant Pitti, CEO and co-Founder, Indiakhelo.com said, “We want to give serious players a platform to take their sport to the next logical level by sharing our sporting knowledge and network and giving them access to our resources through the IRL event and make it a continuous process post the event through Indiakhelo.com”

CommonFloor.com, co-organizers of the tournament will take this opportunity to propagate local apartment/residential complex teams on this unique platform. Sumit Jain, co-Founder, Commonfloor.com said, “Our association with the IRL is a win-win situation for apartment teams to move on from gully-sports and play in the highest competitive form and the most authentic professional setting. Moreover, it is yet another opportunity to reaffirm the community spirit that we stand for.”
