The STAIRS Foundation, recognised by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, launched its 'One Maharashtra One Goal' programme with the aim of promoting grassroots sports and developing young athletes in the state. This initiative, a part of the larger 'One India One Goal' movement, is headed by Independent MLC Satyajeet Tambe, who envisions Maharashtra as the top performing Olympic and sports state in India in the coming decade. With district-level matches beginning in September 2024 and brand ambassadors soon to be announced, this programme strives to create a supportive environment for inclusive participation and excellence in sports.
