Our Story

A community exclusively for women, by women, stitched together by sport and wellness. It all began unwittingly in 2017, in Bangalore, India. What was assumed would be a one-off session for a handful of friends, turned out to be a 17 women strong, super-successful event! So much so, that the women requested the founders to do it every week, and thus began the "Sisterhood".

'Sisters In Sweat' is a community exclusively for women, by women, stitched together by sport and wellness. Now with multiple sport formats including football, basketball, pickleball, swim, tennis, run club and more, we provide accessibility to sport for a community of over 10,000 women (and growing!) in all walks of life. The aim of our organization is to plug the gaping hole of women dropping out of sport, especially after school/college due to a myriad of reasons.

The landscape of organized recreational sport in India is virtually non-existent and our presence in this space is to ensure that women have a platform to participate in and enjoy playing a sport with a community of like-minded individuals. While sport in most instances excludes the vast majority that aren't naturally gifted with athletic prowess or the means to support their passion, Sisters in Sweat has sought to be inclusive of all regardless of athletic ability, age, socio-economic status, etc. Our mission is to 'level the playing field'...
